    TruckersReport Review

    Used to be a great company, until the buyout, now they're ran by a greenhorn starter company called coastal, they got rid of the Christmas bonus, bringing everyone in at 22% if you have one year, used to be 28% right off the bat. When you do home time they expect a strict 34 then back on the road, lots of deadhead miles that you do not get paid for. Best place is only good if you need a stepping stone within your first year, although there are better options out there even still, if you are a veteran driver stay far far away it is not going to be worth your time.
