$Former Employee - Dec 24, 2023
Pros
New trucks. Lots of miles.
Cons
630 miles per shift minimum to make scheduled appts. 10 hours maximum sleeper berth time.. 3 weeks out 2 days home. Driver facing camera. No job security. Micro managing 100%
Former Employee - Dec 14, 2023
Pros
There is literally nothing good about them.
Cons
Everything. Communication sucks. They can't keep you running consistently. Risk control is awful. No one in the office is trustworthy.
Current Employee - Oct 9, 2023
Pros
home time, ok trucks, allowed to have CBs, and satellite radio
Cons
poor benefits, like alot of others, they really dont give craps about you. you have to fight to get them to give basic things. HR doesnt want to hear from you. Safety only wants to yell at you. They expect 200% out of you and to give back 40%. there pay is terrible (Practical miles is horrible) They wont do anything extra unless you call them out
Former Employee - Aug 30, 2023
Pros
dispatcher and loads
Cons
everything else
Current Employee - Jan 25, 2023
Pros
I don't have 5. 6 months youd think at least one thing would be a pro. Truck has indoor plumbing when it rains and snows..? Could be a pro if you need a shower. Home time is plentiful.
Cons
Miles are zip to zip but adds say practical. Equipment in shop constantly. DA competency is very troubling.

.40cpm on all miles always on Craigslist, no wonder why gross 685.00 net 300.00 been going on since January 2016. Always have to fight with pay roll. If you like fighting for your pay every payday Leonards Express is for you. They use to be a good company today that can't be said.Good Luck if you decide to drive for leonards 1100 mile weeks and always live unloading is for the birds.

I worked for leonards, drove regional 5 days a week. Didnt care to do long haul. i averaged close to 2000 a week not leaving the North east. i was home every friday and didnt leave till monday morning.
There is a reason why some drivers don't get miles, because the more capable drivers take it from them. Trust me, there were problems at leonards, but they always had the miles for me because i did my job and did it well.
i left leonards because i was offered a better job driving local and being able to come home every day. plus better pay. the only thing bad about leonards is the drivers there. bunch of cry babies who want something for nothing.
The drivers have more than ruined this place, with being lazy and crashes and just plain stupidity, they have no one to blame but themselves.
And oh yea, the have a first class payroll office, never once had a problem with them and my pay.

I worked there for 3 years doing there local gig out of scranton and they had there moments where they could piss me off but for most part they were fair to me, sorry you had a bad experience but like that last guy there was always plenty of loads to do. if you had Andy as your dispatcher that could have been your problem as he was a bad apple up there.. I would have stayed longer but moved and they didn't offer local where I moved to.

Finally I want to especially thank Mr. _______ & __ for setting me up with allstar aaccomidations at the comfort inn on RT 96 in farmington for using there awsome Leonards company visa that was declined not once but four times twice at the comfort inn and twice at the budget in because the owner owns both accross from each other due to that I was put out in -8 below cold and spent another 70 on a cab and 88 on a bus ticket home that didnt leave untill 4:40am cause god knows if you cant afford a hotel room how can you pay me..
