Bad News from Celadon

Maybe there just saying that so you dont work for them?

 

Basing a company off of what two drivers said isn't the best idea.

 

Well, I get plenty of miles, but I still don't recommend Celadon. The way they run the office side of things really doesn't involve common sense. Besides, they pay really low. I have only stayed because they kept my pay rate from Glen Moore. If they ever decide to cut that, I'm gone.

 

From Florida you have to stay out 3-4 weeks with 3-4 days off and pay range starts around .32... 2000-2500 miles won't give you a lot to take home to momma!!! Not sure about other states but...

 

I know in the last couple of months they have run a lot of ads in the Indy paper for quite a few office positions. Dispatch, CS, shop, parts, safety.
Also, there is a couple of posts on here about ex Glenmore drivers getting their mileage cut.

 

Of course they need more office staff, at the rate they keep sucking up other companies! I'm sure that's a big part of the reason this company is so messed up logistically right now- they got too big too fast.

My miles are fine, but I've heard from some of my fellow former Glennies that they couldn't get miles. That seemed to be a big problem for those who were regional. Which is actually logical, since Celadon had never done regional before.

 

Same for Portland Oregon. Out 4 weeks minimum, off 4 days.

 

Can't help ya there, I don't know any Celadon teams. All the Glen Moore teams have moved on as far as I can tell, and I've never met a Celadon direct hire team.
