    You will only bring home about $650 a week. I leave out on Sunday, get parked up, get unloaded early and you still get crap paying loads. I would run from this company if I was you.

    I've worked for them for 8 months now. I'm getting out of here when I get my year in.

    You sit at shippers for an ungodly amount of time, burns all your clock for the day. Just wouldn't recommend this company to anyone.

    Yikes sorry to hear that one. Thanks for the heads up. Now i know to stay away as well. I was pretty close to giving them a chance too.

    $650-$700 bring home weekly. Not much pay for being on the road all week.
