Pros

None what so ever. Lower then average check and benefits.

Cons

Horrible check and lower then competitors. No lunch, no break, 50 hours a week minimum if you are management. No growth, was there for 6 years with an MBA! Let that sink in! Never went no where! Horrible work ethics everyone will backstab you. Horrible union employees, you work for them and not the other way around. Top management are all old gizzards that care only about their retirement and could care less about the company. I dont see YRC lasting in the next three years. Horrible place trust my word.
