Pros
Do not have anything good really to say about working at Western Express. They are not even a good entry level job for new drivers.
Cons
On the flatbed side- no leadership. No accountability. No respect. Pay scale is THE LOWEST in the trucking industry and many companies offer a starting pay equal to that of drivers who have given 3 or more years- and it is NOT based on experiance. Millions spent on automatic trucks that are inappropriate for OTR flatbed work and absolutely nothing spent on its fleet of damaged, worn out and outdated trailers. There is no open door policy with management and most drivers have never seen anyone in upper management. Driver input is not encouraged. I would advise anyone entering the flatbed business to look elsewhere. There are many opportunities with other companies that have good equipment and respectable entry level pay if one takes the time to look.
