      Overall, a disappointing investment of my time.

      Pros

      Treated as an adult. Never had anyone micromanaging me in the least. They are always respectful to me. The company has great potential but upper management just can't seem to get it together.

      Cons

      Dead head miles. You may take a load to Portland and drive empty, with no pay, back to Atlanta or Hanceville. The freight rates fall lower and lower. If you bring home 700 in a week you are doing well. Additional training in haz mat does not happen even though their recruiting poster lists it as a bullet point. Requesting additional training is ignored. New drivers get a general orientation of a chemical tank and are then sent out to figure the rest out on their own. Extremely dangerous practice. The company does not have a training program whereby a new driver rides with an experienced tank operator. The new driver leaves orientation and steps straight into their own truck and tank. How the company has avoided a major spill or worse is miraculous.

      Action Resources -- a hazardous hazardous materials transport company

      Pros

      Reasonably nice guys, allegedly a Christian company

      Cons

      Too many inconsistencies between what you're told and what's reality. Equipment (trucks, trailers, tanks, etc) are poorly maintained - a very BAD situation for a company that deals in transporting hazardous materials. Dry rotted brake lines, leaking air bags, filthy trucks (inside and out!), check engine lights, damaged and defective hookups, this is NOT a safe company. They acquire equipment from other companies that they've purchased, but do nothing to maintain the equipment on a regular basis or as proactive measures. They have knowingly put defective equipment back on the road. The Charlotte terminal is over-ridden with shoddy equipment and people with a lackadaisical approach to insuring drivers are given safe equipment. This endangers their drivers and EVERYBODY on the road with them!
