Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent pay and benefits. Good vacation schedule that is easy to manage as far as needing time off and taking it in smaller increments. Equipment is also well maintained with the exception of some of the older trailers.

Cons

Targets and goals constantly changing from top down. Drivers as well as Supervisors and Dispatchers constantly have to readjust their "plans of attack" based on the ever changing performance demands.

Pros

Great Pay. Good work experience. Good co-workers on the floor. Monday-Friday.

Cons

Manager & Supervisor were worse I ever worked for. Call to see if you are needed every morning at 4AM & afternoon at 4PM. No set work schedule. Always told that, "things are going to get busy".
