    I'm sorry if you drive for them and am somehow happy with the lies but I thought I heard em all until I tried to drive for them. 99% of what they say is lies! It's a strike one and ur OUT! Probably has alot to do with roadrunner taking over.

    Roadrunner is some big company that bought them because they couldn't stay afloat by themselves. Their website says midwest regional positions but when you get in there they say sure we got em but you won't make any money so you don't want them. No home time unless you don't mind not making money. Was promised a certain truck but then they said sorry all we have this old one.

    Maybe its time to ask for all promises in writing and any failure of said promises results in a heavy monetary penalty to the driver..

    I have been with Bruenger for 15 years. I'm quitting. The new President and Vice President are turning the company into another mega carrier. AVOID BRUENGER.

    Seems to be a disturbing trend in this industry.. Good small companies getting bought out and run straight into the ground.

    That Roadrunner bought them out because they couldn't stay afloat by themselves is completely incorrect and you obviously don't know what you're talking about. Bruenger was dong just fine on their own and was a great company before Roadrunner took over. They made money and moved freight when freight was slow for others. Since RR took control things have gone downhill quite a bit. That being said, I'm still doing okay with them and I know others that are, too. You have to work, though. As far as "no home time unless you don't mind not making money", show me a company that pays you for staying home and I'll sign up tomorrow.

    that is what happens when a big profit minded company buys out other companies for the sole purpose of raking in huge profits and has no interest in taking care of employees . That is how they make their money . Employees are always expendable and another will take your place when you quit . Same thing happened around here ( also live in Wichita ) when A big Canadian company bought LaFarge out of kansas and bought Cornejo . Pay rates dropped like a rock in a lake .
