Cargo Transporters Good or Bad to work for

I live in Hickory and have worked at Cargo Transporters for over two years now. Im home every weekend (in the past 2 years I think I have had maybe 4 weekends where I didn't get a 34 hour restart) and usually a night or two during the week. The freight is fairly steady/consistent, lots of drop/hook loads. Equipment is kept in good shape and safety is top priority.

My health insurance is around $40 a week, I was with my trainer for 8 weeks. Orientation for a driver straight out of driving school is basically 3 days.

 

How would orientation be for a experienced driver?

 

When I went through orientation, the people in it that were experienced were assigned trucks and got their first load halfway through the second day of orientation

 

do you get paid weekly or biweekly?

 

Weekly by direct deposit. And they pay reimbursements for scales, tolls(most if not all trucks have EZ pass), etc a couple times a week so you never have to wait more than a day or two for that money once you have turned in the receipt.
