Pros

Hometime is better than most other companies in my area. Pretty driver friendly company in my terminal (Kingsport) and trucks are above avg.

Cons

However, pay is lower, benefits are very poor (health ins. Is worst I've ever had due to very high cost and poor plan) no sick days, only $50 holiday pay and 401 k is average. Management is only out for themselves. They will not go to bat for drivers and are micromanaging the company way too much. They act like your best friend and try to make you feel important then their actions speak louder than words. I bust my butt for them with no appreciation in return. I don't feel like there is a future here and I will only last until I get a better opportunity with another company.

Pros

There are no pros. If I could just work in the office it would be great. Monday through Friday, company paid lunch everyday and a knap after lunch. I could leave early on Friday and tell everyone " it sucks to be you".

Cons

Health insurance is out of reach expensive. You have drivers that have no insurance. We cannot afford it. No insurance no check ups or physicals. twt should be ashamed of what's happening in Columbia! DAK what a joy 70 hours of week oh thanks work every weekend wooo hooo Pay is terrible Assistant mechanic rummaging through belongings in your truck thanks
