Dispatchers are nouveau slave owners - OTR Regional Driver Marten Transport Employee Review

Full 48hrs off a week, good miles, great support, onsite 24hr mechanic and tire shop, showers, close to all needs.

4mos in none in sight.

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.

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.
