Pros

The team members are great to work with! If you don’t have a lot of Sales experience so cannot get hired at a better Freight company then you can get good experience here.

Cons

They do don’t care about their employees or customers! They will step over a dollar to save a nickel. Continually lose customers and employee because they just don’t care and think customers and employees are very replaceable. Work life balance is horrible. To much time taking us away from our territory with the same monotonous conference call and meetings. They pay the lowest in the industry. If you have experience don’t work here. Upper management is the good old boys club no women. VP’s maybe one if that director. The fellow employees make it worth it and the customers are great. Just constantly trying to keep them when the service fails. Disconnect between operations and corporate.

Pros

I have been working at YRC Freight for 3 months, what a mistake - I am searching for other employment... nothing good about working here.

Cons

YRC Freight treats workers terribly and the management team micromanages us. YRC is very frugal with their funds - we get paid the lowest of all freight companies - truck drivers get between $18-$22/hour, reps earn near minimum wage perhaps because YRC stock price is around 3.00 per which is crazy low (bad upper management) - they have a Market Cap of about $105M but owe about $1.2B. It just seems like they are going out of business soon. Very low morale and big separation between the union and management.
