    The company cuts rates and treats drivers rudely.

    DRIVERS BEWARE! I would not recommend to work for this company to anyone (as a truck driver). Didn’t return my security deposit back. Although it was agreed that they would not return only $250, but in fact they charged me $1000 without providing any explanation and the owner is ignoring my calls and messages.

    What can I say from my 30 years’ altitude in the industry: Without owning equipment, they pay is top-notch (if you are working in the squad with your dispatcher and safety). Solo average net: $ 3,100+/week and hardworking Team take home: $ 5,500+ and more. Just trust and follow dispatcher to be a rich man ! Knowledgeable safety department, in very deep following DOT regulation, will help you stay away of violation on the fly. The only problem is they just hiring High Professional master drivers with a strict check on the driving test for newcomers. THEY ARE HIRING TO RETIRING.
