Pros

- It's a fairly stable mega

Cons

- Changed insurance for employees, telling them nothing changed. Except for the fact that GLP-1s now cost 600% more than they did last year. As a company who employs many many obese drivers, this decision raises an eyebrow. - Dispatchers who have never driven a truck. They expect you to make the same time as the crow flies and don't understand the issues that drivers encounter - Favorites. Your loads all depend on if your dispatcher likes you. The best loads go to the same people every day. - Loads are slowing down. They won't admit it, but they've started telling drivers to "not come in today" - No accountability for broken equipment, and ineffective mechanics. You either lose revenue pay to get your equipment fixed, or you can just leave it for the next unfortunate driver using it.

Pros

Experience, equipment, terminals, no micromanagement

Break downs, fuel costs, repairs . Etc. lots of new people get their cdl with prime & prime pushes leasing onto them. Get your experience as a company driver, you’re not missing out.
