Super Ego steals money, bleeds drivers!

Contrary to what a lot of drivers think, companies don't make the insurance company their first call. The practice of making a driver pay for things he damages is debatable for sure. A lot of people, me included think it's a pretty poor way to handle things. On the other hand, if the damage was your fault, why should anyone else have to pay for it?

That will be an interesting matter to follow. SFI does allow you take the truck to other carriers, but if you want the $0 down flavor of the leasing, you have to go to Schneider.

 

If they're going to steal, they should have named their company something else.

Superego | Definition, Examples, & Facts

 

So, I was reading this section on super ego.. I definitely saw that a few Drivers were indeed suing them for stealing... but what brought them to the conclusion that the company was stealing from them?.. And then I have this video of someone I follow on YouTube... He doesn't do endorsements of companies but gives you good information for you to decide on your own. I also saw the videos the driver showing his pay statements. Then, I had the opportunity to talk with a driver who was driving for them as a lease operator OTR, he only had positive things to say. The pay was definitely good, and he didn't have any complaints.. He didn't offer and I didn't ask for his info for driver recruiting bonus. I'm not defending them just putting it out there do your own research cause there will always be both good and bad feed back on any company. People will always say good things about the company that they work for regardless, Lol until they leave the company then it's Bad or good & bad reviews. One person experience with a company may not be your experience, it's all in how you handle your business, do your research and keep your level of professionalism to business only. Remember they are not there to be your friend, it's nothing personal it's Business.

 

With anything in life, an intelligent person will go with the majority in a situation. Of course they have some success stories. So does CR England. Research shows this company is a typical garbage company from the capital of garbage companies. Between the bad stories and seeing them on the road and dealing with them in truckstops….that is enough to tell one to stay far away.

 

Yeah lesson learned I just drove for a russian serbian company out of Chicago named high performance logistics llc that pulled super ego trailers and other rented trailers. After falling victim to the if it sounds to good to be true it usually is I realized the owner who brought me in was making empty promises and stealing money from me he mentioned that after all expenses that take home pay would be $2500-$3500 a week fuel was the biggest expense that was deducted from my settlement and the truck note was $1k the highest I made while driving for him was $2134 still below the $2500 mark I stayed there for a month and 2 weeks and then quit. I was a leased purchase driver that guy had me broke with negative checks for 2 consecutive weeks and during those last 2 weeks
notice he didn't honor it I'm still waiting for that last paycheck which will never come.

 

I can tell you routes to go, but may be pointless, unless waiting a couple yrs, or paying out an attorney lots of dough, I know the game. Make some $$ with them temp while they steal off top. Gotta run hard right now, before could make 5-6k a week after their theft. I am fine with companies making money, but don't sign a contract with me for whatever percentage, then steal off that percentage. Its a real unscrupulous game out there, I also know brokers as well, that will #### you over. basically. Just gotta figure out what works best for you in this industry

 

Agreed. Even the lowest bottom feeding ChiTown companies have success stories. They have to have someone they can point to, and say "call him, and ask him about how much he makes, our lease program, etc".....

 

So willingly work for them, knowing they will be stealing from you?

 

What I am saying is that, yes they are gonna steal off the top of the load doing one of those contracts, where you supposedly get 75-90 percent of the gross. Look at it as more as 50 percent once they steal off the top, and remember you pay for everything. I am not advocating to work for any of those places, but Yes if market is great you can make good money with one of them with the caveat being, any escrow $$$ or checks on hold don't expect to see once you quit ,if you run hard and bite your lip, knowing they are stealing, you will in most case make more than a company driver at any mega carrier. Also remember you are a IC(lol) no benefits, its all about playing the game. One I am blacklisted from those companies. once they see your name, asking for pic of cdl they run you through CDL Scan or contact their sister companies. They know I am trouble and I will call them out on their BS, and do what I have to to get reimbursed, but I have lost a lot of money I know I am owed in the process, but I have also taken home 7k before taxes lol again in a week running some stupid miles illegally that should have over 10k. I was also in a ton of debt before. Right now I would think it's better to be a high paid company driver, with benefits. All depends on your situation and sanity level. I stay local now, and make great $$$, but I know some accounts to make great $$$ depending on where you live. Its all what you want to do. I only got into trucking to pay off a huge amount of debt I was in, it took me a couple yrs to get to a point of making just at least 1500-1600 a week, plus lots of phone calls and trial and error, and I only go up. I had a truck I bought at a credit union that I kinda just fell into, for 7k, 2013 international Prostar, 500k miles, (Max Force 13 engine, complete #### from what I have read) got this when I was still new into trucking and almost went OO, but I still had too much debt and also know that was a #### engine, that I still got a settlement check even though I flipped it back in 2018 for 16k, but knowledge I have today, I would have run it, for a 7k truck, knowing how much I could make with not having a payment. I also know not all money is good, gotta have a balance, and enjoy and make the most of your experiences here.

Right now I work a gig contracted and make 2500-3500 a week and am home everyday, I put lots of hrs in but its easy, I take naps and I don't stress, but have also seen jobs in fracking making 4-5k a week and if own truck profiting 30-40k a month. Basically how the market is. I also know quite a few other things, and have met recruiters that get drivers to those eastern euro companies and make 3-6k a week all while sitting at home. Most drivers here in America want to here another American speaking to them, and those companies know this. So if I talk you into working for one of them they pay me 1k for each driver I bring on. I don't do this. Just something I know others do. They don't care if they know this company will screw drivers.
Also working for a lot of companies here in America you are still getting screwed doing their fleece purchase. Idk, just gotta stay hungry and look around and find what works for you!!!

 

Well I decided to give Super Ego a shot
And my story is very similar to a lot of drivers complaints I only stood a week and a half before I seen this company is some BS like how do you even call a driver telling him you have a load paying 1200 going to Delaware from south Alabama I was like how can I see money if I’ll pay close to 800 on fuel I told dispatch I prefer to get a load back to Chicago because every load was paid next to nothing I decided to deadhead back to the yard after dispatch claims he didn’t have anything going to chi my first full week was Atl to Connecticut then Ny to Springfield Mo after all deductions I got a statement for only 128 dollars and even tho I completed that week and decided to quit they didn’t even deposit My check I didn’t abandon the equipment or nothing I think this company is a scam I been driving over 15yrs and I never felt so screwed in my whole career maybe it’s dispatch and the economy but this was a waste of my time and money hotel,drug test ,food,flight,etc and yes I read reviews before even joining but I figured everybody different but if all says it’s bs sometimes it’s best to listen
