Pros

Competitive start-up pay for college graduates and young professionals. Constantly on the phone speaking with truck dispatchers, drivers, shippers/receivers, and customers - perfecting your sales pitch and ability to speak effectively. Chasing down freight and the "cat and mouse" like game of closing an account is fun, once you have freight, the job is much better. Obvious opportunity to make a good living and enjoy working at a workplace atmosphere unlike any other company in the country. Benefits are awesome and vacation time increases at yearly anniversary dates.

Cons

Transportation industry can be shady and test someone's patience at times.

Pros

Frat House environment if that's what you're into.

Cons

Where do I even start.... My first week there the sales manager, whose account I was supposed to look over and be trained by, was gone for the whole week. The desk spot they put me at was next to this JBL party box, making it virtually impossible to communicate over the phone. When you're in the training phase you literally do all the work for the account manager, then you're expected to make cold calls to people that want no part in TQL. When you do get someone on the phone and make a sale, you wont be seeing any of that money. They have a commission draw set up where you have to be making a certain amount of revenue before you can make commission- thus leaving you to the measly 43k salary. These recruiters and managers SELL you a false dream, the turnover rate there is astronomical for a reason. They will hire anyone that'll learn the system, use them for labor for 6 months, cut them when they don't meet the ridiculous KPI metrics. To be actually successful here you either have to work near 60+ hours a week for YEARS waking at 4am to "snipe" accounts that have been released due to inactivity, or be handed an account by a retiring SR level manager. RUN from this company!
