    Con-way freight is a good company to work for. You can make good money and be home every night or day, depending on if you work P&D or line haul.

    Do they require that you have passports?

    Starting pay is 19.60hr top pay is around 25hr mileage is .45-.58 a mile...home every day/night depends on if you work city p/d or linehaul. Some terminals have day line haul, but starting out he will be on flex board. Overtime after you get your 8hrs in. I hope this helps

    DSR (Former Employee), LONG BEACH ULB TERMINAL CALIFORNIA
    Pros: pay, weekends off, home daily(though only long enough to sleep)
    Cons: horrible treatment, cameras in cabs, no breaks


    Long days without breaks, they call all their employes DSR's (Driver Sales Representative) do to a loophole in the labor laws that state labor laws do not apply to sales reps, if you work the dock all day and decide to take a break after 12 hours they can and WILL fire you for stealing company time!

    Aside from being treated horribly this is a great place to make money if you cant find a driving job elsewhere, they start at $20hr (or $0.42mi for LH) and work you 60-70hrs a week whether you like it or not, If you work on linehaul plan on sitting on the side of the road for a few hours every Saturday morning because they WILL run you out of hours every Friday night.

    They will hire people fresh out of driving school so this is a good place to get the 1-2 years driving experience that other companies require! –
