Leaving me $1500 short, so i got a guy i know to cosign for me, now the recruter told me to make sure i told him he was cosigning for the 6000 not just the 1500 i needed, so i did and he cosigned but was a little relectant and i dont blame him. well school was 3 weeks long and i had about 6 prehires and thought flat bedding was my calling cause i dont mind getting out of the truck and getting some exercise. Well at the end of my 2nd week they give me papers that the cosigner needs to sign to make the loan offical. Well guess what they didnt tell me, the intrest rate is 22% wich made that 6000 turn into 10000 and there isnt no life insurance on that loan either so god forbid something happens to me while i start a career in one of the worlds most dangerous jobs and my cosigner is stuck paying the whole note. So needless to say i had to call arrow and tell them to hold off on buying me a bus ticket cause now i gotta wait till my tax returns wich is only a few weeks away to pay the 1500 my self. But if at all possible please be sure to keep us updated on oreantation and training im sure i will have alot of questions for ya that will come in real handy when i go for myself, thanx buddy

Do not go to Arrow! Read my last posts on Arrow for updated information on them.

PLEASE listen to this advice! Read any of my past posts over the last year about this company. Even the ones where dcedlr disagreed with me. His claims about this company mirror mine from last summer. They are bad news. They were bad when I drove for them, they are worse now. They will not survive this slowdown.

I drove for arrow 1.5 years, i've had a few good runs with arrow, but that was it. the company is struggling and they keep losing clients!! I gotten a lot of advice about searching for companies and i've been told many times to stay away from comanies that offer sign-on bonuses because they have high turn-over rates. I don't recommend arrow trucking.

They'll promise you the world, put you in a poorly maintained truck (which you'll have to clean out to make livable, you know, sweeping out someone elses fingernails, used dental floss, shoes, dirty socks, and god knows what was all over the floor around the shifter), then they'll toss a couple of decent paying loads on you to keep you quiet, then the #### will start. If your thinking about Regional, trust me, you'll want to put a gun in your mouth the third week out while your sitting in one of the T/A's outside of Dallas waiting for freight. Good luck finding a modern split axle flat in that company. Drivers will literally fight over them in the yard. Most of their trailers are old beatup steel trailers with rotted out wood decks, closed tandems, and get this..... PORTABLE WINCHES that you are expected to bungy to the trailer to keep them from falling off when under load. By the way, you are paying for your own bungies and cheater bar.


Other than that, they are a "family oriented company".......... at least that is what they claimed in orientation. I guess if they say it, it must be true, right?

i was there for 3 months i just quit 2 weeks ago. my biggest paycheck was 43 dollars in the past 6 weeks. i would get one lil 300 mile run a week. ask elizabeth about JR when you call and talk. she will tell you about me lol. they fed me up one wall and down the other. i lost EVERYTHING in the last few months. i would sit for 5 to 9 days at a time atleast once a month. it was pathetic. i made more during orientation then i did any other week. my truck was darn near brand new and well kept but i got lucky. this company is junk. i would recomend ANY ONE before i did arrow. some were happy when i talked to them. like 3 drivers i talked to out of my 5 day at a time stint in tulsa getting a light fixed or the ac fixed. evryone was broke. they will get you to orientation and fire you on day 5 of orientation if they dont like your attitude and so on. they check everything too. they will accept n e felonys over 5 years and i mean any. my friend i met in orientation did 15 years for murder and they hired him and put him with a trainer. so just be ware. i can only account for my experience. you might like it. every job isnt for every driver.
