Pros

There has been nothing good to say about this company and I have only been there 3 weeks in total.

Cons

They refuse to listen to drivers. Don't like answering phones. Night and weekend dispatch have no clue what is going on. Poor equipment. Shop mechanic 20 years behind current technology. Don't pay bonus as promised.

Pros

They pay you a litte higher than other OTR carriers in the Nashville area but raises ave very ard to get, several people have not had a raise in 6-12 years.

Cons

Be expected to work 55+hrs a week plus every other Saturday. A few months ago it was every weekend and working a sat or sun. Expect yelling and f-bombs all over. The owner had just passed away and depending on the new president is, it may have a slight chance to be a better place to work. They will need to hire from the outside to do this. May of us have been looking for a new job but not many job openings in the Nashville area.
