Ruan out of San Antonio

I heasr RUAN, as a company is 150% safety oriented. To the point that they go overboard

 

That's good money for San Antonio.

 

I worked for them on the battery account and also their bread account . Great company

On the battery account I made over $90k back in 2017 , now you should be making over $100k easy . It’s one of the few accounts that pay you hourly for OTR / regional work as opposed to mileage

it’s pretty easy work you deliver new batteries and pick up cores , you have an electric pallet jack and a liftgate

also, something cool about Ruan is once you work a year on xx account, you can transfer to other locations all around the country

Negatives . Slow trucks (63-65) , cameras , lots of safety redundancy and micro managing

 

look up Megasafe7 . Thats their program and you hear about it non stop

Don’t get me wrong ,I’m all for driver safety but they go above and beyond and you start feeling like they’re babysitting you (my feelings)

 

it really depends on the terminal and specific account ; Some are more strict than others .

They have a probationary period when you first get hired and that’s when people get let go for first time incidents that would seem minor . Their ‘newer’ trucks have all the safety equipment and the computer reports directly to safety department for everything from speed to following distance , hard braking , yaw , seat belt , AI cameras , etc . My terminal let a guy go for not using 3 points of contact , each time was a violation and so many violations get you fired

 

I believe it’s 90 days . I don’t work for them anymore ; unfortunately I’m an idiot and got into an altercation with one of their customers and I was fired ; they were nice about it though and on my DAC report it just shows “laid off” not fired

I’d still be there if not for that . I made good money on the two accounts .
