Pros

Can't think of any other than the vending machine.

Cons

Alot of hours for little compensation. Constantly waiting on a truck or load. trailers always need repaired before hauling and you don't get paid for that lost time, there is always something preventing the wheels from turning anyone making money. dispatch is unorganized and constantly pulling your loads from you.

Management sucks

Driver support

Business Outlook

Pros

Quarterly bonus was a plus

Cons

Management is terrible, training is awful and they pick and choose who gets good shifts. If you stick up for yourself you get the shifts no one wants and they are very dead set on meeting performance wise but will not assist when it is needed.
