Pros
GOOD EQUIPMENT AND MAINTENANCE. TYPICALLY VERY FLEXIBLE CUSTOMERS.
Cons
OTR has its challenges and isn't for everyone. Dispatch will fall asleep on you so keep them on a short leash.

Not perfect but maybe as good as it gets. I marked home time with 5 star where a lot of reviews clearly have issues with this. If you live within a 100 miles of a terminal there likely is zero issue. I like to take a week for myself after a 4 week tour of North America. I think if you work here and market yourself with Hazmat, TWIC, passport and are a strong winter driver you can write your own ticket. Dispatch is on orders to keep you moving so just push back. 8 years with IRT.

Pros
Fairly steady work.
Cons
See review

Poorly equipped Volvo trucks, cameras, 65mph, all automatics. Trailers are trash. Poor pump pay, shorted on miles, no real benefits unless your paying your fair share. Be careful to volunteer for the pneumatic tank division unless you know the deal. Couple of good people in the office but run like a corporation with a dirt yard. See through the smoke, mirrors and dust, and you won't be dissappointed.
