Pros

They take you right out of cdl school

Cons

It's basically the Amazon dsp of trucking. Absolutely worst pay, management, disrespect, and no life balance. Expect to make under $1000 every week. I could've made more getting their low $100 layover pay than actually working. I did over 60 hours and 3000 miles a few times and didn't hit over 1100.
