Covenant lied throughiut the recruiting process

For starters I was told orientation paid out at $100/day only to find out that it actually pays out at $50/day (must be that new math, right?)

I was told there's a $40,000 bonus paid out as an additional $1,000/wk. Only to find out the bonus is half of what was promised and it's paid out as $1,000 every 60,000 miles.

I was initially informed that teaming was a choice only to find out that it's the only option. They were truethful that the bonus is contingent on a driver's drivers decision to team.

The recruiter told me that the trucks are governed at 70 on the throttle and the like detector determined that that was a lie.

Then I was told my experience doesn't count because my previous job was a 1099 even though I expressly told the recruiter that during the initial application process.

When I informed them that they weren't a good fit for me due to the afformentioned lies/omissions they refused to reimburse me for the travel to their facility ( full tank of gas not too big of a deal there.)

Safe to say I'm fairly dissatisfied with covenant although I do accept my culpability in that I failed to do my homework and took everything at face value. No big loss though $80 is a cheap lesson in the trucking industry.

 

Now I see why they were so opposed to me driving my pov down. They wanted me to choose between being stranded in Chattanooga and working for them after the renegged on #### near everything they told me.

 

Thanks I didn't know that. Is quiting from an orientation viewed as a serious ding?

 

While I was there they told me they expect their teams to do 3,000/wk (which doesn't make any sense to me because I go 4,000/wk solo) so that means the bonus would be paid out after 15 years of straight working.
