      Pros

      They pay you a litte higher than other OTR carriers in the Nashville area but raises ave very ard to get, several people have not had a raise in 6-12 years.

      Cons

      Be expected to work 55+hrs a week plus every other Saturday. A few months ago it was every weekend and working a sat or sun. Expect yelling and f-bombs all over. The owner had just passed away and depending on the new president is, it may have a slight chance to be a better place to work. They will need to hire from the outside to do this. May of us have been looking for a new job but not many job openings in the Nashville area.

      Pros

      decent starting salary, but they start you out at the max so you will never get a raise. Fellow employees are nice

      Cons

      If you work the night shift plan on scheduling your life around your sleep schedule. Every employee is scheduled for a 50 hour week, which is rough on the personal life. Also, if you work the night shift you work every single sunday...yes, every one!! So if your family lives in a different city, plan on using Skype if you ever want to see them. Type of company that will put a temporary fix on something just to get by and not fix it correctly. No HR department that I know of. VP does the hiring and firing.
