Martin has a censor on all their employees so they went there and aren't allowed to talk about them haha I won't work for a company like that and I won't work for a company that tells me what I can and can't wear I don't dress like a thug but if I wanna wear my cowboy boots I will

When they went to forced per diem in 2009, after a year of offering it optionally, they gave everyone plenty of advance notice then made the change. However, instead of just leaving well enough alone, some idiot decided they should also run a sleazy in-house ad campaign, month after month for a whole year, to try to fool drivers into thinking it was a pay raise ("more pay in your pocket!"). Some drivers took offense at this and retaliated by writing lots of negative things about Marten online (### for tat).
The funny thing is, the 2017 tax bill transformed per diem into a genuinely good thing for drivers...it now truly does let them keep money that would otherwise end up going to Uncle Sam!
Based on everything I've heard, Roger Marten built an awesome company to drive for. Unfortunately he was no longer alive when I started there in 1999. Most of the old-timers had left by then, but many were still there, so I at least got to hear some of the stories about the good ol' days.Flat Earth Trucker Thanks this. -
