Pros

I got a sleep study and CPAP machine to use for free.

Cons

They refused to break a company policy to get me home in a timely manner after the untimely death of my wife. I did not wish to leave my personal gear in California and take a flight home to make it easy for them to pilfer through my gear and steal me blind!

Pros

Good office camaraderie, regular PTO available for long term employees if you stay there long enough, good overall structure in place to deal with most common trucking company/industry issues.

Cons

Management has a tendency to nitpick issues. Everything is goal and growth oriented as a public company so you're always expected to do more with less. During the current trucking market they keep looking for new ways to trim the fat. This was the first year they didn't provide company calendars to employees, and got rid of the yearly floating PTO day as well. 401k contributions also diminished. There were also blatant sexist/transphobic/homophobic remarks made nearly daily and nothing was ever done about it.
