Pros

Not a good place to work, one thing I say they were honest about, was they don't sugar coat s---. The pay is wack, they tell you, over the phone, you'll make 1200 weekly that's a lie. The most I grossed was 800... Tarp pay is $15 and all we Carrie is lumber tarps... And I been here for a year.. I got 3 years driving experience...There very unprofessional here, they push you to run illegal to make early delivery... I got hurt in the job last week, they wanted me to travel from north east Ohio to Nashville for treatment. I was already home and I said screw that and went to the hospital. I then followed up with workers comp. I Stayed home the rest of the week... They was so mad calling, cussing me out. And called me a horrible driver... Then they fired me today.... 02 -25-15. Every driver says these exact words, this is the worse company I ever drove for. Even swift is better then these retards ...

Cons

There real bad about getting you home. It's like they try to pick your home time. And when you do go home its gonna be on a weekend no week days nothing!!!!
