Pros

I have been working for Western Express for the last 5 months. I have to say I have grown in so many ways as a new driver. My DM (Jimmy) listens to my concerns about time management and being successful. The company overall is trying to improve with drivers that care about their equipment and making money. Western Express is known for being a starter company...i have turned into a professional driver and they have increased my pay to the point of its competitive with other companies. I drive a 2021 Freightliner they are constantly bringing in new trucks. My pay is always accurate and they listen to me and work with me. If you are just starting out this is a great company to start with...i think I will stay!

Cons

Low pay but now I just jumped to $.46 a mile. I think that their trainers need to have more than 3 months experience in order to produce a confident driver.
