    Hello,
    I have read the recent posts on Falcon from a couple of drivers. One good, one horrible. Just wondering if anyone here has worked for their Flatbed division? I am close to a terminal in Cleveland, Ohio, and they have regional flatbed for newbie drivers. I have made up my mind about 90% to attend CDL school. Falcon is close by home, and they advertise home weekends if you run Flatbed for them. Money may not be as good as OTR van, but thats o.k. for now. Just looking to get my foot in the door of a good company. Thak you in advance from any Falcon or ex Falcon drivers that can gime me an honest opinion. I understand that no company is perfect, things happen.

    Flatbedding at Falcon should be good. At least my friend out of Jersey says so. They stress to be under a load on Sunday to make the wage and to make the grade. They have some other benefits like extra pay if you run the weekend. There medical insurance is very reasonable. You can make more money elsewhere, but they seem like a hassle free place to work.
