Working at night is not for everyone. Every weekend readjustment can be a drag.

Drivers are the lowest firm of life to managers here. Only qualification to be a manager here is that you have a college degree, most have a degree in physical education. They have absolutely no knowledge of the trucking business but yet REFUSE to listen to those that do. Stay away if safety is important to you.

Pros

Health insurance

Cons

Extremely elitist, snobbish, uneducated managers with a flair for hypocrisy.

Exel, Inc.

Amid all the gripe it's great to have a forum to give praise where praise is due, and I am here to sing the praises of Exel, Inc., a logistics and supply chain management company hq'd in Westerville,OH. My specific 8 year experience has been hauling auto parts to dealers (they handle Chrysler et al).

I prefer trailers with liftgates. The jobs usually pay better, the work is more agreeable, and the schedule is very predictable, leaving time for a life outside of work.

Aside from one or two minor disagreements, my experience has only been positive by any measure you care to apply. I grossed $1000.- a week, worked about 10 hours a night, paid 16,- a week for health dental vision, had a fully matched 401k, My co-workers were great and helpful and I got along great with just about everyone in management.

The only reason I'm not there anymore is that at contract renewal time they got underbid, and since I like the work and did not like the job options they had available elsewhere, I stayed with the new company.

It wasn't until a couple of weeks with the new employer that I began to realize what I was missing.
