    Anyone work for this company? Do you like them? Pay good? Any complaints? Anything to beware of?

    How do they treat there drivers. That's the first thing I would look at. Than make your own determination on the equipment. Those safety numbers don't always show the whole picture. FedEx is a perfect example.

    The safety rating should be a prime example how they treat their drivers.

    Just based on how I have seen their drivers drive and what passes for driving (consistently mind ya); I, myself, would go back to tarping loads in the sub-zero frozen north before I went there. But I'm kinda snooty so ya gotta over look me sometimes. OK, most times. Still. I haven't seen a single thing about them to attract a descent driver with a descent record and a little experience. JMO.
