Hello,
I had a phone interview today, and now my application is being passed on for the hiring manager. What can I expect from YRC? I have a family and really need the benefits, my grandfather is a retired teamster and told me to get on here and stay put. Just really looking for any information that I can get, I do not know much about this company.

Can be a wonderful place to work long term. Just do a fair days work and be honest. Road or city or dock? On the first day, if there are several people starting, try to punch the clock first as it will start your seniority. Be prepared to give up your nights and weekends for the next several years.
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
Road is what I was told. Are the insurance benefits good? I have never driven for a union organization before, I am sure I will have to learn alot.

Line haul is extremely difficult, you will spend a lot of time baby sitting your phone and more than likely on the extra board for a year before you have a whiff of bidding on a job. Benefits are so-so, they certainly aren't what they were when I was there. Drivers have taken concessions over the last few years to keep the company afloat. With that said, be patient and do your time, hopefully they don't take anymore pay cuts.
JM2Ccool35 Thanks this. -
Thank you, I am a little concerned with the concessions, and the ability to stay afloat.I have a large family and can't sit around waiting for work, I need consistent money. I will continue looking, but will not write them off just yet.

My Dad retired in '92 from Yellow in DFW after 35 years in various locals. He still draws his pension...

My grandpa is retired from Holland in Knoxville, and he told me to jump on the opportunity, but I think that a lot has changed since he retired.
