Pros

Good DLs, they get you back home on time 9/10 times, and they do try. Great starter company, but you plateau on your career with the same loads, pay and trucks. First couple of years is great to get experience, but I would opt for a better paying position where you're more valued for your time and dedication.

Cons

Misogyny, career plateau, Once you decide to contest safety about anything, you might as well look for abother job. You will be under a microscope, without pc, passenger rider policy and any chances at going o/o.
