May 2, 2016 - Reefer Driver in Kansas City, KSRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
stays on top of maintenance, has terminals where you can always find a parking place, and a shower. most of the terminals had friendly employees and staff. Plenty of miles, no forced dispatch, truly. Love the daily pay option.
Cons
Sitting duck policy is stupid, DM act like little kids sometimes with their moodiness and bad attitudes. Will screw you out of your bonuses if they can. Difficulty getting home. All of these things are no different than most other companies though. KC,KS terminal management team sucks.
