Pros

If you have the knack for it, the actual driving experience is second to none. Good pay, but you will earn it. The immediate leadership is fine to work with although they will work you as hard as you let them. If you are just starting and are looking for a way to get you CDL this is a good way to do it if you can tough it out. As long as you stay out of the politics and stay under the radar, you shouldn't have any problems. Just watch your mirrors going down the road.

Cons

They will call you night and day to cover runs if you have the hours or not. If you get the newer equipment that's good, but usually you will get stuck with the scraps and end up breaking down all the time. Very difficult trying to have any sort of home or social life as you are either on the road or too tired to do anything.

Pros

They will hire anybody if you need a job to get you started in trucking. Generally speaking the trucks are in good condition. If you would like to learn to shift they should e people who can teach you. Their medical benefits are actually pretty good.

Cons

They push for you to very frequently go over on time and they will fix your logs from an administrative account. Heavy traffic isn’t a reason to be running, if you fall too far behind you end up losing a large chunk of pay for the run. There’s a guy in payroll who seems to get enjoyment out of taking that money off your check. I found it very challenging to work there. They promise good pay for the job, a hard job, and more often than not I made half that. They also wanted me to sign paperwork saying I was the one who had made changes to my logs and that they had never asked me to do anything against fmcsa rules. They were pretty aggressive with that.
