Status Transportation - Orlando, Fl.

What happenened? I tought about taking my truck there.

 

Idk why I'm seeing so many negative comments about status transportation. I've been here about 8 months now and I love it. The pay is excellent, I completely understand my settlement sheet and I'm treated with respect. I understand everyone doesn't have the same experience but I'm happy with status

 

I have been with Status Transportation for seven years. I paid my truck off and bought a brand new trailer. I like it here. What I know is you’re going to get people complaining about every company in this industry. What it really comes down to is what company you can work with.

 

If you want to work for the Russian Mafia then lease onto Status Transportation. After working for Status for almost 3 years let me give you some of the highlights of their company and the cut throat Russians that own and are employed by this company.
If you try to leave their company they will REFUSE to verify your employment with the company you're looking to go to. They will tell you to your face that by law they don't have to verify your employment for 30 days so they force you to stay with them.
They steal from your line haul by taking their percentage and then taking more of the price of the load that the broker confirms. When you ask for the email confirmation of the fax from the broker they will change the price on it and take hours to send it to you.
They don't have staff working 24/7 to assist you.
There's lots of brokers that will not work with them so they'll constantly tell you there's nothing available. For example Dallas in June I'm stuck for 4 days because they said there's nothing available. We all know that's a lie since that's a big hub.
Your paychecks will be $200 for weeks in a row due to their lack of loads available to them.
They do not assist in anyway with tires or repairs if you break down. I took my truck to their shop in Georgia and their mechanic broke a part in my engine. It took them 6 weeks to get the part and repair my truck. They did not pay not one red cent for my hotel, food or loss of income. Then after me paying for a hotel and rental car and food and my bills for 6 weeks with no income they refused to make a payment plan for the other parts that they insisted they needed to change because they had to open up my entire engine and couldn't put the old parts back in. Eventually when they realized I could only pay $1000 of the $9000 bill they broke up the bill into installments because they realized I just didn't have the money. Once you did get away from their grasp, they tell you by law they don't have to give you your escrow back until 45 days. They really try to spite you in every way possible that they can come up with
