Butler Transport, Inc. - Kansas City, Ks.?

Little ole company out of Green Bay. You might have heard of them. They often lay eggs in construction zones.

 

Cool move.

Good outfit !!!

 

Based on the numbers via SafeStat, Butler has 297 trucks.
Though we all know, that there are ALWAYS 'some' trucks sitting at every medium to large companies.....just for sake of discussion, we are going to use these numbers.

Those trucks ran 36,003,821 miles in a 24 month (2 year) period.

So; 36,003,821 miles divided by 297 trucks divided by two years = 60,612 miles per year, per truck.

60,612 miles X $.32 cpm = $19,395.84 per year, $1,616.32 per month, $404.08 per week before taxes (and without accesorial pay).

Somebody get me an application please.....sounds like a GREAT deal.

 

They gave me a prehire about a month ago but they pay package lets say fell a little short of impressive. Plus they pay per diem and their benefits aren't too great. I talked to one of their drivers about a month ago he said he was getting good miles but getting home was starting to become a problem. He had been out for a month.

 

Yeah, the pay and benefits aren't great but they hired me when I was looking to get back into trucking so I'm grateful for that but I will be moving on pretty soon.

 

Your stats may work on paper BUT I actually ran 147000+ mi in the past year for them and I have NEVER had a paycheck anywhere close to a measly $400

 

That is a steady average of 2,827 miles per week for 52 weeks straight. As a "solo" driver? I don't believe you for a second. Nice try though.

 

Wish they'd stop with the eggs already. And their love notes on the sign posts as well.

 

run away as fast as you can. bad company. drivers are abandoning their trucks. i am already looking for a better paying job. i do like my DM. they nickel and dime you to death

 

How so? Specifics, please.
