USA Truck Reviews

Pros

Great Dispatch Team. Manager At Fulton At The Time Was Great. Good Salary. Great Hometime.

Cons

Hard work. Manual unloading of rolling cards weighing over 500lbs. Must work in any type of weather.

Pros

They pay you for as you drink their Kool aid and shut your mouth about anything you need

Cons

Can I say everything? Unsupportive bosses, constantly feel unsafe to ask questions or to fail. Unless you’ve been in trucking for 20 years OR are a Mormon man be prepared to fail because they don’t want to equip you with tools to succeed. Total boys club with no women in successful roles unless you are buddies with the executive team. Everyone is overworked, goals are impossible to reach, and they’ll leave you out to dry when they get tired of “helping” you succeed. Culture is a lie, all they care about family and serving themselves. Maybe they should take care of their employees with salary raises and bonuses rather than firing them with not even as much of a PTO payout rather than taking 40 people (and the executives) on a week trip to Mexico. If you’re a recent grad, STAY AWAY. It seems like a good offer but it’s not and the first chance they can get rid of you, they will.

Pros

Some of the most professional and intelligent staff I've ever been affiliated with. Greatest mix of personalities and skill in the business. These folks truly care about their team members.

Cons

I cannot think of any cons worth mentioning.

Pros

Working here will get you some experience in the transportation industry but that’s about it.

Cons

I can really only speak to my experience in USAT Logistics. The asset side at USA is completely separate. If you work on the logistics side of the company you’ll notice some folks are just overworked. This is mainly because USA Truck assigns some folks to work on what they call ‘strategic accounts’... It’s a fancy way of saying ‘losing operations’. I was one of these people. Essentially what happens is you’ll work extremely hard for no gain. I worked for two years on the cheapest, crappiest freight the company had. The only pay raise I saw was in the form of incentives when my superiors quit because they couldn’t take it anymore (lucky me). Nobody at this company seems to know what’s going on and it’s a real emotional roller coaster when freight markets move in and out of the broker’s favor. There is no real system when it comes to managing carrier relationships, so when the market is in your favor life at USAT Logistics is bearable but as soon as the market swings life is hell. The company is essentially a revolving door, people are constantly coming and going. By the time I left my coworkers were completely different. When management decided to add to my team, thus dramatically decreasing my monthly take home pay I decided enough is enough and I started looking for a new job. When I found a new job I was immediately offered a pay raise to stay... It was quite the slap in the face seeing as it was promised to me by my regional manager only to be denied by upper management. My superiors who quit were offered similar compensation to stay. That’s just the type of people they are... My advice is to run away from this company. If you get rejected in a job interview, shake your interviewer’s hand and say ‘good luck with your job search’. Chances are they’re probably looking themselves.

Pros

Good Pay and every once in a while the CEO will buy you pizza. You know AFTER you just made HIM a BIG bonus.

Cons

Overworked and terrible management. If you work hard you just get more work but if you slack.. dont worry a hard worker will pick up the slack.
