Pros

None at all. Lies, lies and more lies. No contracts, only loads from a load board. So you're basically a third party deliverer that wonders around America. Old out dated rusty trailers with serious maintenance issues and the trucks aren't any better. Pay sucks. Make more money cleaning toilets. Treat you like you don't have a life outside of trying to make this company a buck.

Cons

That they make you stay with them two years or you will have to pay back a 10k loan. Not worth it. Especially during this inflation. Can't afford food from the basic food groups from the money they pay you. Run. Just run away from this company.

Pros

Awesome coworkers and amazing supervisor

Cons

Upper management does not listen to what should be done. Get overruled in decision making even though we know what we are doing and they don't.
