Very good company and no one is paying me to say it. A very driver focused company, they keep you moving. Just like any other trucking company, you learn the b.s. they have running lanes all over, but primary lanes are 80 and 70. Lots of drop and hook. Good pay and CPM.

Pros

Miles, maintenance, safety, load options, lots of drop and hook

Cons

Use only 1 fuel network, safety, lack of pre-planning/last minute dispatching, no assigned dispatchers.

Thing's were better before B rent showed up. I remember when he came over from Crete after he was released. He Smoked like a Chimney every 20 minute's, he would be outside puffing up. He would about near run you over getting outside to to satisfy his nicotine craving. I'm glad the good ole Days are gone.

Pros

Average Equipment, Great Company for Ex-Military unless you don't like Drill Sergeant's

Cons

Good luck getting home if you live too far away from freight. Major micro management. GM is a little Slow.

I've been here since 2015, when the "New Management" happened. It's not a perfect company, but the equipment & miles are great, and I usually know where I am going next before I get there. I am confused about the last review - new management happened almost 6 years ago? I would tell anyone thinking about coming here that I haven't been yelled at or intimidated by a dispatcher/safety. If anyone talked to me like that, Brent , Linda or Jerrod or Jozalinn would know about it right away. I think the reviewer might be being honest, I'm just guessing that the review is based on their experience back before 2015. I think any drivers working here could tell you that there isn't a lot of yelling happening, its a pretty laid back place. I do wish I could get home more often, but I'm either too busy or the part where I live in BFE and there isn't a lot of freight going to where I live.

Pros

Office Staff Miles Free Health insurance trucks

Cons

hometime a lot of night driving (its reefer) run RECAP alot

Beware companies who have mini one star and five star reviews. You can bet the one stars or Drivers and the five stars our managers owners and their secretaries. Omaha hovers over driver reviews so they can call drivers lawyers and rebuke them. The worst companies do this because they know that most drivers but it works for them will write bad reviews or a bad company. Good companies will read the reviews and try to improve. Bad companies will read the reviews and intimidate ,insult, and threaten Drivers. They tell Drivers there’s a new management but there’s always people left that yell and scream at Drivers and or abusive. This company is a major standard for companies to avoid.

Pros

They do pay once a week. When you quit they may give you a paycheck for at least some of the time you worked

Cons

Beware of companies that insult drivers and intimidate them.

Your average meat hauler lack of respect for the bottom 75% of drivers. One of the worst companies I've worked for in 26 years

Pros

None

Cons

Unless you live around Omaha or on a main route for them. Good Luck getting home. Have little contract freight mostly broker loads. One dispatcher likes to make up stories. Beware
