Roehl Transport Employee Reviews about "hour"

Pros

I would say great pay.

Cons

I would say long hours.

Pros

Good pay, excellent fleet managers, and pay is consistently correct.

Cons

New tech update causes inside camera on for the sillyest reasons. Get too close to lane lines, too close to vehicle in front, even though you are a mile away. Feels like micro managing through camera technology.

Pros

I love that no two days are the same and I am consistently challenged. Transportation is a fast paced industry and meeting new people has been another benefit of this job.

Cons

10 hour days 5 days a week is the only drawback

Pros

Stable company. Competitive pay, but there is so much not to like.

Cons

They promote based on hours worked rather than abilities. If you burn the midnight oil in the office, they seem to think you're worthy of promotion. From what I've seen, they promote people who should not be promoted to manager positions. Values are not always in the best interest of employees as they are not treated fairly. Department leadership needs work with confidentiality. The office space does not allow for privacy. Oftentimes, I hear multiple calls that should be done in private, but the company floorspace redesign moved from traditional cubicles to an open design, and it's not the best approach. Inconsistent leadership across the board. The CEO is relatively in his office all the time and unapproachable. Team meetings are non-existent. If you really value a good culture at your place of employment, this company is not for you. You will be treated like a number rather than a person, and this hasn't changed for the past 20 years. I say this because I used to work here, I left, then came back, thinking things have to have improved over the years. Boy, was I wrong! I'm truly disappointed that a company of this size, who has been in business this long, hasn't improved at all in the way they build leadership and value their employees. I cannot recommend working here, and as soon as I find another suitable job that I like, I intend to resign.

Pros

Good training and decent terminals with the exception probably being the Conley terminal. Paid cdl training and decent solo pay depending on your area and fleet.

Cons

Poor communication between dispatchers and drivers. Plans "hopeful" loads and tries to get you to take them outside of appointment times. Fleet management are glorified call center agents that have safety department breathing down their neck to micromanage drivers. Company cares more about the load than drivers. Micromanagement from safety department on minor things. Inward facing cameras that they lie about being able to cover up over time.

Pros

Some of the fleet managers are very good at their jobs Mileage per week is excellent Equipment and safety is also excellent

Cons

Planners, CS and Fleet Managers are not on the same page Pay needs to be more competitive

Pros

Great place to get your CDL Great staff and personally never had any issues with them Great with working with you

Cons

okay rate for owner operators, would like to see them being more competitive and different option
