    I made a little list here to get some opinions of what you drivers think of these companies. Please give full detail do not just come in the thread, and just state the company sucks/best/good/soso with out a full to brief explanation. I also made this list to help newbies out since I always see threads being made on what are the best companies out there to work for.
    Please add to the list, I will keep it updated if you feel as though a company/union has treated you right. :Van:

    I know about corraluzzos decent co to start with doing fuel hauling but does have some raggedy equip.. Conway is a good co to work for but you bust booty to climb that ladder and work everyday... Fedex freight is way better than conway because when its slow they still try to find u work at other terminals or diff positions..... To anybody thinking of doing freight work just know that it has no pitty on your body and the freight co will always want you to go above and beyond to get the job done! If you're new you should probably go towards either truckload or tanker as a career choice because either one will pay off in the end.... Good luck oh and Old dominion I've heard is a good co but like I said all freight co want you the driver to bust booty to get the job done.....
