Pros

Company believes in safety and does provide excellent service to customers. Has been a leader in driver training and driver wages.

Cons

Definitely a large company with a company 1st mentality. Had no issues with working management and other full time staff excessive hours.

Pros

I have met and dealt with many great people I like that the schedules are flexible since I am also a college student I also like that they pay for everything needed to obtain a cdl and school bus permit, plus they pay you while training

Cons

They are a little lacking in the benefits department, but it is a part-time job The pay could also be better since the districts around us pay more on average
