Current Employee - Sep 27, 2023

This was by far the best company I have worked. You get what you put into a company. It takes time for us drivers to learn the system at these companies. So communicate understand don't point fingers on to someone else when you haven't done your best

Pros

The greatest team I know of

Cons

Do to this horrible economy they closed. That being said they worked there butts off to get the drivers home

Very toxic work environment, vehicle safety maintenance terrible Owner doesn’t care about drivers or safety. Driver abuse is a daily experience. Managers are scared of owner. Work elsewhere. Most drivers quit. High turnover rates

Pros

Home daily. Nothing more

Cons

Incredibly toxic

$85,000.00 GROSS!! LMAO You will not make money there! They have their favorites and they are going to work them first. O/O and Brokers. During the slow time, Brokers will work while the O/O sits home and pays their mandatory insurance. 4to 6 loads a week max for several months. Prior to that 10 loads a week. Either everyone is in on the take or everyone is completely blind.

Pros

There are no pro's at this place

Cons

You will end up bankrupt and equipment destroyed

Don't believe when they say you'll make money. Management is so disconnected from employees it's not funny. Mechanics are limited to 40 hrs a week, so maintenance is atrocious. The guiding principle seems to be "make John Glidewell money and MAYBE he'll pass some along"

Pros

Home every night. That's it.

Cons

Bad management. Don't care about employees. Bad CSA rating. Poor maintenance.

Sunset Logistics?

 I have been in rock hauling for about 29 years and I have seen this company over and over come in and under bid job after job to the level where a owner operator can't make any money. As far as weather, weather is weather. I live in central Texas and have worked in DFW area and all over central Texas and the weather has not ever kept me from making a decent living.

I worked for them for a few weeks. Dont believe the $$$ they claim you will make. I ran every single run assigned and brought home 400-550 a week as a company driver. But as a O/O it may be differnt.
