Western Express reviews

I am currently employed by this joke of a trucking company.there is no communication whatsoever between brake down,dispatch,or thier drivers.I broke down a week and one day ago..the regen system isneeding to be replaced at the costs of 13000 dollars I am stuck in a hotel room that I have to continue to chase them to pay for they have gotten my pay wrong and now thay have checked me out of my room and still my truck is not repaired.there are no cabs in Washington Pennsylvania for what reason I am not sure I have been forced to rent a car that I'm unsure whether they're going to reimburse that to me. I've had to hold the hotel room on my personal credit card they want me to leave my belongings so they can put me on a bus and bring me back to Nashville Tennessee.to get another truck.I'm not angry that the truck is broken down I am angry with all the crap that I've been put through while waiting for a truck to be repaired.this company will keep you in a dark and not tell you what is going on they want me to take all my belongings and sit in the lobby of the hotel while they figure things out to only check me back in hours later.consider yourself warned I can write for hours about my experience here but there is not enough room on this page..

Lies about home time- I get one night at home after being out 5 weeks. Cheats drivers injured on job out of money- broke my foot and had to stay in Nashville Tn. and do light duty to have a paycheck of any kind and still had to perform tasks requiring walking and standing on my feet. Was paid a total of $ 19 by workmans comp for 6 weeks of downtime. Steals from its drivers- when I was injured company reassigned my truck and rhey cleaned my personal property out of ir. They took ratchet binders, coil edge potectors rhat belonged to me and refuse to return them or compensate me for them. Cheats drivers out of tarp pay- $15 for full 8' drop lumber tarp. In addition, has little concern for drivers with health issues tarping in sub-zero or +90 degree weather by virtue of the established pay for tarping. I used to like Western alot but now am ashamed to admit I drive for them and as soon as possible I will leave them.
