Current Employee - Feb 2, 2024

Worst company I have ever worked for... The head mechanic continued to lie about properly fixing equipment.. trucks and trailers were constantly breaking down.. I was constantly broke down on the side of the road. I reported app damaged equipment before leaving on a trip.. head mechanic would lie about fixing equipment . Company would constantly send me out with damaged equipment.. No matter how many times I told the owner or mechanic the problems were ignored.. until the time of completing breaking down on me leaving me stranded on the side of the road ..I also ran illegally the owner was well aware of the problem, he refused to fix the problem... he continued to believe his Head mechanic who was continually lying to him I went out of my way to pick up new contracts for the company making them money... I was also lied too about making more money for pulling doubles. We had a agreement not to pull doubles . Owner lied to me said he would pay me more yet refused to pay until I threatened to quit... I was a local driver who worked 70+ hours a week not getting my 10 hour reset.. not getting my 32 hours of rest . This company new exactly what they were doing.. in my 20+ yes experience as a professional driver I have never seen such disrespectful treatment.. I constantly took pictures of damaged equipment yet the owner tells a different story in order to cover for his poor mechanic what a joke.. the owner was well aware of all mantainence needed for his equipment.. he chose to ignore it.. Loads and money are more important Than safety . I have reported Ag Needs to Utah and Idaho D.O.T..for validation of illegal logs, not taking 10 hours off for rest..

Pros

Good home time not so good pay not so good maintenance

Cons

Lying mechanic lying dispatch.. no accountability for poorly maintaining equipment

This company puts on a good face and the owner tries to be your friend along with the rest of the office, but it’s short lived. The owner is a great guy and very loyal to his office personnel. Problem with that is when there is a problem it’s always the drivers word versus theirs and they he driver always looses. The maintenance guys are very hard to deal with and are extremely rude with the drivers. They yell at the drivers and cuss the drivers for problems that have been talked about and then it’s just the drivers fault. The pay roll is always there but reimbursements are a pain to get and cause a lot of grief especially if you use a cash advance to pay for company items. They will charge you for the advance even if it’s for the company. They have an extremely hard time with keeping up on their trucks maintenance and don’t care if you are running an unsafe truck and trailer. If you point out the problems and refuse to drive it they send you home unpaid and everything wrong with the truck is the drivers fault

Pros

The pay is fair. Home time is extremely easy to get they will let you take a day off whenever needed

Cons

Want you to run illegal logs. Poor maintenance. Rude office/ maintenance employees. Hard to get a hold of anyone in the office. Very unorganized. Never have a plan of what’s going on

The dispatchers are awesome it’s the people that manage the company that has an issue. I’m sure there’s some good to the company but to each their own my opinion is my opinion and others is their opinion
