    Is there a reason why there is data missing from the evaluation rating/ comment / opinion section on most of the companies...

    After reading around here, ( that sounded cheap ) my wife and I have found this the MOST useful Thread so far for info for newbe's like us. Straight forward, Informative, and to the point. "Questions answered without asking" information without the confusing "Run to's and Run Away From's". Finally we were able to start crossing Companies off our list after 4 months of searching. Thank You
     
    JahB Thanks this.

    I hope people who know these details will continue to provide any other information they have, or provide updates to keep it useful and current.

    This is absolutely the best thread I have seen on here. While it is nice to get peoples perceptions about which carriers to work for, things like "low pay" are fairly subjective. And comments like "they suck" are really not very definitive...

    I'm just sayin...
