Great Plains Transport reviews

Pros

There are none. Company is now kaput.

Cons

Everything about it was a con in the end. Poor to non existant maintenance and mostly garbage rental trucks. The freight became all east coast regional garbage.

Pros

1400 a week salary, equipment was good.

Cons

Mismanaged by Mike Holland, lies to employees, loads became crap, and the shut it down from 48 OTR, to regional east of I-35 only.

Pros

The salary pay was really nice.

Cons

You won’t earn the bonus. Don’t even get your hopes up. The salary pay is simply too low and you’re going to likely be stuck east of the Mississippi River your entire time working here. Getting any maintenance done whatsoever was impossible. The deadlines were impossible to make and the owner of the company routinely cusses or yells obscenities in front of the drivers or dispatchers/office people. Do not work for them.

Pros

Not one good thing I can say.

Cons

The office people make you feel very uncomfortable, the terminal sucks, the truck are full of bugs and pesticides. The vehicle that was giving to me was killing me with some weird smell like cables burning

Pros

Truck is in good shape, has a refrigerator. Trucks have an apu or opti-idle. I prefer this, quieter than an apu. I almost never have to idle the truck. They offer salary pay. You get paid the same no matter how many miles you drive. They also pay for hometime.

Cons

I'm an otr cross country truck driver. The short miles and sitting are not for me. I hate being paid to not drive. I prefer mileage pay and running hard. Most loads go Midwest or eastern USA. I'm not a big fan of driving in the southeast, too much traffic. Easier getting around out west. Most loads come from brokers. You will have to download half a dozen apps to communicate with them.
