Pros

Pay for full time is average but the scheduling and hours suck especially when you're starting out. I can only imagine it won't get any better with time as I see veterans work crappy schedules also

Cons

Crappy schedules. Crappy equipment. Crappy facility. Lies about what you'll be doing

Pros

YRC Freight has better benefits then most companies. This may be the only good thing left with the company. They are showing some improvement with their financial issues as well.

Cons

YRC Freight has terrible shift and hours for 90 percent of the employees. The management are disconnected with the employees which causes a high turn over rate in management. They focus more on what you do wrong instead what your doing right. Some of the things employees are discipline for are irrelevant to the task at hand. They feel that if you keep your employees upset they will work better for you. They run the company with scare tactics.

Pros

Not much - I believe some departments may be better and it is a Fortune 500 company.

Cons

Extremely high turnover, they have been through many, many coordinators in last 2 years, 4 direct managers and 2 directors. You will be asked to go above and beyond with nothing in return. They have no budget for any increases and are bringing in staff at lower and lower pay. I have been in the industry for almost 20 years and have never experienced such a poor work environment. It was a very big let down in my career.
