No. I've never worked there. They have always had a terrible reputation.
Personally, I have 1 cdl, it is clean, and staying that way.
Working at outfits like this, puts your license in jeopardy.
Why add any more risk to this job, if you can control it ?
Good Luck

Trucking Jobs in 30 seconds
Every month 400 people find a job with the help of TruckersReport.
-
Google shows there are over 500,000 trucking companies in the USA. Drivers working there and complaining, why did you choose PTL when you had over 500,000 companies to choose from? Is it because PTL is the only company that would give you a chance to get you back on the road due to leaving trucking or some legal issues? If so, you should appreciate it. A good analogy is, you wine and dine a woman to get what you want, then after she gives you what you want, you call her a slut.
Keep it in perspective; if PTL is so horrible, why are you working there? There are 499,999 other companies to choose from, so why do you remain with PTL? -

Wasn't taken as rude.
You are correct, doing proper pre/post trips will definetly help keep you out of trouble.
Just remember your company has a target pinned to their chest, and DOT is aiming for it.
I feel it is very important to control as many risk as possible. So to me, where you work makes a big difference.
But a company that has always had a bad reputation,
just sends reds flags up in the air, to me.
Your mind is set, keep your stuf straight, you should be OK.
But it does make me wonder,
why do so many of their drivers have a suspended cdl ?

You are correct, doing proper pre/post trips will definetly help keep you out of trouble.
Just remember your company has a target pinned to their chest, and DOT is aiming for it.
I feel it is very important to control as many risk as possible. So to me, where you work makes a big difference.
But a company that has always had a bad reputation,
just sends reds flags up in the air, to me.
Your mind is set, keep your stuf straight, you should be OK.
But it does make me wonder,
why do so many of their drivers have a suspended cdl ?

ok lol that last part makes me a little unsteady, but yea I do agree 100% there is a target pinned on the chest of drivers of bad rep companies but I mean, yea it makes me uneasy to go there knowing about the bad rep but I mean, I have a crappy work history, job hoping and what not, so my options are kinda slim, ive never had any tickets, or wrecks or anything like that, just a few bad job choices in the past, I know if I can just get on somewhere that I know I can get good miles and a few perks I want then I should be able to make a solid year AT LEAST and get my work history back on track. honestly I gotta get my #### together quick if I want to make it somewhere in this industryClick to expand...123456 Thanks this. -
You are on the edge,
that is an awful position to be in.
So, you're basically going there because you HAVE to.
Swift has way better safety record, but I hear you on the APU !!
Put your year in, and bail.
Honestly,
Good Luck,
and keep your stuff in order !!Chinatown and BabyFaceTrucker Thank this. -
