Pros

No experience required, training program offered. New fleet of trucks now have power inverters and some with refrigerators. Lots of terminals and driver services. Lots of fleet options and non-driving employment opportunities if you’re looking for a change. Opportunities for bonus pay. Lots of good people within the company that are in positions to help you, whether it’s driver managers, mechanics, security, roadside services, or other office personnel.

Cons

Occasionally, hometime requests aren’t met in time. Disappointed to learn about lawsuits against the company. Poor reputation.
