Pros

Great pay and benefits, I have been at saia 5 years. Love my job until well here comes the cons

Cons

New Freightline trucks with driver cams in all trucks by 2018. Writing drivers up for ridiculous stuff. Like taking a drink of water. The people reviewing these videos have never seen the inside of a truck so they have no idea what we deal with. Also putting Bose Ride System seats in new trucks. They adjust to your weight and you can not let air out. They are very uncomfortable to myself and a lot of drives I have talked to

Saia LTL Freight Response
9y
Thank you for taking the time to submit your feedback. In order for our company to be successful, it is critical that we have open communication and dialogue with our most important asset- our employees. It is great to hear you are pleased with our pay and benefits packages- we pride ourselves on offering best-in-class benefits and pay to our employees. In regards to the driver cameras- we know you and other drivers have a lot of questions so we're hoping our response will clear up some confusion. As our roads become busier and more dangerous, it is paramount that carriers and professional drivers are doing their part to improve safety. That's why we are installing the Lytx camera system. We strongly believe Saia drivers will be safer doing their jobs every day because of this technology. When triggered by an unusual driving event, the Lytx recorder captures video and data that can help inform coaching sessions, reward good driving, and exonerate drivers from false claims. It does not, nor cannot, continuously record. The system has proven to enhance safety at the companies where it is utilized.
