    Terrible Company, Will Rob drivers thousands off loads, I was only there 9 days and caught on what they were doing after 4. Then refuse to pay, Stay FAR AWAY!

    Big Learning Lesson, but I am hard headed so I to learn with first hand experience, Trial and Error type of person, but I would say most if not all possibly of those Chicago based companies will rob you, one way or another, might just take longer for some to figure out whats going.

    Too bad you didn’t check here BEFORE hiring on. YOU would’ve been warned about ALL of those Chicago based 1099 outfits.

    At least you wised up in a short time. There are countless folks that don’t figure it out for months.

    .....unlike a certain bat we all know and love, who thought he was biting a Kentuckian, and they ended up being from Missouri...

    Exactly, I was already aware of many of the major ones out there and all the stories, but again I like to find out things for myself to have that first hand knowledge, but you are exactly right, it really only took me about 3 days, after that it was me just trying to get the truck back to them, I wish a couple of those drivers that got my # would call me, because I am sure they may think they are making good money, and saying hey I will run illegal this time but look at how much I am making, not knowing any better or spot market rates or asking to have that rate con, that are getting robbed thousands of dollars weekly/monthly/yearly. Maybe some drivers would over look that and say I still made twice as much as I did as company driver, but in my case book they are thieves and I can't stand anything more than a thief. Lying like they are your best friend telling you how much loads pay than you get lucky like me and talk to the brokers directly or see the rate cons and know how full of it they are.

    Sorry for Late reply been working at an actual company that is legit, signed on for a flat rate of $2500 weekly company driver and I am home everyday, but yeah if you did or are still thinking about going there, all I can say is DON"T, but if you insist MOST IMPORTANTLY ask them will they send you the signed rate con from the broker, if they say no but we will text you info, just know they are ROBBING YOU off each LOAD, and ask questions about everything, get copies of everything, I even filmed them signing off on the truck being in same condition as when I got it, and have all text and voice recordings of our conversations, and keep receipts for everything which I have (tolls,fuel,etc...), Most of this is if you decide to still go, but I Advise strongly with my first hand knowledge and all evidence I have not to, and as I stated before I am not going to let this go till they pay me, I have addresses and phone numbers, full names, past companies these people worked, DOB's, and an attorney, I am waiting currently till as there contract states which we have copies of they have up to 45 days from last day to pay, so it is closing in on that time now, and soon we will be taking further steps to settle this matter, if this is not settled.
