Pros
The work itself is enjoyable. If you like crying almost daily because you never see your kids, this is the place for you!!
Cons
ZERO family/home life balance. Forced to work 45 hours. There isn’t even enough work to keep busy for that long. I get no time with my babies. My children are also being punished because of it. They never see their mom. The 6 minutes a day we have together is not enough. Family is not valued. No give and take. Only take by the company. Taking away these precious years I’ll never get back with my beautiful children. The only reason I haven’t left is because I can’t afford to. It’s sucking the absolute life out of me. I had to start therapy in order to even get through my days.

Pros
- They will train you for your CDL but you need to give back 120k miles - The pay is fair and you keep going up. After a year, it seems the pay is average. There are other companies that pay better, but there are definitely others that pay worse. - They are SUPER SAFE. They will never ask you to keep going if you feel you are tired or there is any danger. Safety is one of the key points of this company, and the driver and load getting to destination safely. - Good trucks. Pretty new. I've got a Freightliner 2023 now. I did have a 2019 before but for not more than about 5 months.
Cons
- I can't think of any normal cons. The company is fair, try to get you fixed as quickly as possible, promote safety checks, etc. Have terminals in various parts of the country. I think it's well-organized. I understand this company is currently #1 on the CSA scores. I understand it is often around the top 3.
Roehl Transport Response3wThanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us! We're happy to hear that our value of Safety has been central to your experience with TeamRoehl. We're glad you're part of our team and look forward to continued success together in the future.
