    Horrible Company to work for. Owner doesn't give a crap about the Driver's unless you're a million mile Driver. Detention and layover seldom gets paid. Long wait times for pick ups and deliveries 5 to 10 hours on average with no detention pay. If you get into the milk division be prepared for sitting a lot at customers.

    If you want the miles then IRT has them. When compared to other companies they hold the crown in this race. No company is perfect. I am a current driver and I can honestly say that it's solely up to you as the driver to either be a runner and make an amazing paycheck or be a sitter and starve yourself out. Nice equipment and very good Dispatcher's. Coast to Coast loads and the opportunity to move liquid food to keep America fed.

    A paperless company perfect for this new generation of steering wheel holders that can't back or park need those with electronic and app skills. Not meant for old school drivers which explains auto trans in units. Driver / Secretary will be your function.

    There's a big turn over rate here for a reason. Your expected to avoid scales when loaded especially with milk not to mention tolls as well therefore you'll be pushing the limits of the 100 mile out of route policy hopefully there's a love's on your route. CSA score is high expect to pull on scales even empty. Good luck in direct calls to personnel. Smoke or pet drivers charged $50 a week even though unit assigned seen its better days 600.000 miles. Seats n mattresses what a joke stress level will be high because of these factors with no rest or comfort. Prepare to age by years in a short period that's all I can say.

    Run don't walk. The character that's on Orientation video constantly turns head away after speaking. This is a red flag to those we are about to screw the driver. Driver seat are worn out and mattresses unfit to lay on and bunk accessories including fan inoperative. Good luck on maintenance help. There will be a bald tire on unit n trailer as well. Sure you'll look good going down the road but that's as far as it gets. Best look around for something else is your best bet.

    Keep scrolling for another job. They are designed to cut money from you one way or the other. Between their out of route mile charges in which mind you their route plan is not near fueling points therefore no choice but go out of route and only can fuel at love's at that. Their mileage estimate from one point to another isn't remotely what it actually is so there again you pay drive for free. Narrator on safey video constantly turning head after speaking this is a red flag a sign of we are about to screw you.
