Want to stay broke? Work for Conway!

teams do very well.....especially H&W teams...... I avg 5500-6500 when I teamed , lower on hometime weeks
alot depends on where u live.,.

 

I worked here 4 years ago I also worked at Freight... Anyhow while I worked at Truckload I met Teams who were happy and also Teams who were cleaning out the truck do to the fact that they weren't making any money... Conway is no different than any other big company they work out for some drivers/teams and they don't work out for others... If they were so great they wouldn't have orientation every Monday... I didn't mind working for them but my tenure was up when they called me to Joplin to do E-logs... Sorry BYE BYE me no do E-logs...

Remember Hazmat and going to Canada isn't an option for new hires... Its a must...


Best of luck if you decide to give them a shot...

 

Been at Freight for 11 years. Ran day line - haul in 2013 and made 75k bailing as soon as I could daily. Got bumped back to nights and should do 95k with the same mentality. It takes some time but you can make money on the Freight side once you hit top scale and can bid a good run. If I pushed my current run like most do I would make around 110k driving a truck. That's pretty good - so is my 95 taking unpaid nights every time they come up.

 

con-way has been good to me every Monday and Thursday the CEO leaves the bones from his porterhouse steak in the parking lot for me.

 

Came in a little shy of projected (took more time off than I anticipated):

Wasn't nice to be around yeller during weeks

33-38

Albeit.

Excellent march though.

I want your march.... xD

 

When I worked for them they started everyone at .36cpm no matter if you had 1 year or 30 years experience... And you got a penny raise every year until you maxed out at 42 or 43... I'm guessing the pay scale has changed?

 

The pay scale has changed a little -- depending on experience/seniority, base pay is .37-.42 plus a quarterly safety bonus of .01-.04. Then you have additional pay for hazmat loads, NE loads, border crossings, extra stops, local work, detention, layover, breakdown, holidays, xmas bonus, vacation pay, etc. And Con-way recently resumed matching 50% of your 401k contributions (up to 3.5%).

So guys at the top end of seniority can easily be in the .50's with all the extras...

 

Right on, They didn't offer breakdown pay when I was with them, that's nice that they changed that... Wasn't a bad company to work, sounds like its still decent.
