Pros

New trucks with satellite and tv. With a good Dm u can get good miles

Cons

Lies from the recruiter 2 the driver managers Instead of .28 mile, it's actually .18 mile. If u r a refresher, ur still a refresher for 9 months, making .28 mile .12 mile is per diem that they take out that's not taxes and .18 is what your actually making a mile and after that is taxes then they add the per diem to it. So you're not making money. Then .04 mile is taken out to pay for the so called refresher course they send you through. The only training they give to refreshers is stick them in a truck with another driver that's a refresher and you 10,000 miles and then they put you in a truck. And this goes on for 9 months. Also with this being a second chance company. They hire guys that need 2nd chances so they take advantage of them along with the other drivers. And give this confusing low sliding scale pay. The only people making good are the people working in the brick building. Cause it Damn sure isn't the drivers.
