Wilson Logistics PNW

I currently average about 2,200 miles per week, but I also have circumstances that are preventing me from doing more (dealing with a nasty divorce). I think the typical average is probably closer to 2,500.

 

Not our division. I can’t speak for the other divisions.

 

I’m back with them, kind of. I left for health reasons, not because I wanted to. I actually enjoyed my time there. I ended up at DSV for a promised daytime, home every night, weekends off position. That was a mistake! Thankfully that’s being corrected due to the fact, irony of ironies, Wilson bought DSV when they decided to back out of the US market. Right now, Wilson is in an observation mode. They’re looking to see what DSV did that worked, and didn’t work. Then they will implement their own procedures and policies, and keep any that worked for DSV, which I can tell you now, there weren’t any that worked.

I live in Pierce County, within 30 minutes of the Wilson yard in Pacific, Washington. That is where they also have their training center. I normally ran Washington, Oregon and Idaho. I was out Monday through Friday, home weekends. Drivers have the option of working weekends if they want, but it is not expected.And I’m keeping the option open of possibly returning to regional.

 

I believe they do have a sign on bonus. They also have retention bonuses (stay five years, get a bonus, ten years, etc.).
