Pros

Co workers are great people thats about it.

Cons

Managment is dysfunctional. Line haul opportunities arent available because of seniority. It would take 4 years before you get an opportunity. Then you sit on extra board for 10 years

Pros

The money is really the only thing good about it.

Cons

They reward poor work ethic while demeaning the good, they rather fire someone who gets sick a lot than someone who literally runs 0 freight and starts fights with supervisors doing their jobs....also the forklifts stay in poor condition which makes the job so much more difficult.

Pros

Great pay, Great supervisors, Equipment in good order (for the industry) Benefits are 5 Star. Supervisors are extremely helpful when you need time off and understanding when you have to call out. No penalties for unscheduled call outs unless privilage is abused. Once you have an established run and some seniority you couldn't ask for a better job.

Cons

Seniority only feels like it applies to the top 2/3 of the road drivers, takes time 5+ years to get a run you can plan your life around. Central management changes runs/plans continuously making new ones daily, kind of an industry norm but can run you ragged if your run keeps changing, they also cut from the bottom so a more senior driver may get the last run when they are expecting to gate in/out earlier.
