    You never know how much a load pays. Ex-Director of Safety accused me of being a complainer of how they operated. Chad, the head of maintenance, was verbally abusive and accusatory. Don't give details about loads. Don't assign loads in a timely fashion. The VP is verbally abusive and threatening. When I quit, I was cursed at, was told they would ruin my credit.

    You would never know how much your paychecks are until you get it because they would never tell you how much a load pays. They'll let you know you make a percentage but it's the guessing game on how much you getting paid

    I set 2 days during the work week, I make bare minimum. You can literally make more money local home everyday then you can hear. Most loads I've delivered in one week is three. You will set for 10-26 hours

    Never put much stock in reviews but I wish I had, no money, and absolutely no respect from the owner. If you go to work for them plan on sitting because they don't have the loads. Good luck!

    They changed their pay policy from being paid by the mile to percentang it gave me less money because I couldn't get my percentage above 26 % if you drove from shipper to receiver and relied on you Garmin truck GPS and deliver on time you would get a remark with your pay sheet stating I was out of rout and they all so lookat your fuel mileage and it has to be above 6.5 miles and if you were idling for any amount of time it would all affect your paycheck
