Pros

they will hire anybody period

Cons

They lie lie lie. They say you can make up to 12oo wk but people are barely making 4oo a week in their dry vans, not enough vans so you may spend 2 or3 days waiting for an empty and not get paid, they charge the driver almost ten dollars a week admin fees which are illegal , they use your money to pay for their parts out of your paycheck so you may not get a paycheck. In TN you may be waiting 1 to 2 weeks to get your truck fixed even if it is a minor thing. Base pay for a guy in flatbed was seventeen cents per mile.... They try and force you to drive broken trucks , fender held on by bungy cord.... and worse... Only one trailer I picked up did not have any bad tires

Pros

Greetings.., My tenured at Western Express began Jan 2024. Throughout my stationary period with the company, I’ve had the honor and privilege to work with agent Ken Brooks. Ken and myself have not always witnessed or observed the same portrait at times. However, like every relationship, there will be disagreements. Nonetheless, Ken has served as the head-coach and myself the point-guard. Similar to many coaches and athlete duo. Ken is knowledgeable, reliable and sharp thinking, as his intuitive nature pours success. He not only wants you to thrive and be successful, he is position-less in one’s ability to be successful. This is accomplished by providing routes, formative feedback and suggestions to maximize your time and money. Despite his motion for team and honors. He is easy to communicate and has often replied to questions while on his break. Not everyone has that property trait, particular quality, skill, or attribute. Through my lens, Ken has put his best foot forward and continues aid, guidance and do what is best for the individual (myself).

Cons

If I needed to add a con, it would be better transparency. Nonetheless, Ken has shown, he is willing and able to build on this con. He has strengthen his communicational traits.
