    Was there ever a time when Heartland Express did have a decent reputation?
    If so, how long ago was it that the company changed to the current reputation that it now has?

    God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

    It used to be a decent company to work for before the current CEO took over control when his father died. Or so it was according to the old timers still working there when I did. Many of them with 10+ years with Heartland where quitting in droves when I was there.

    They would still be in business whatever the recruiters said. They have a high CPM pay scale that makes drivers think they will be making more money, and that's supposed to make the other BS from Heartland tolerable.
    They find out soon enough it doesn't.

    Hi folks, Rob here—with Heartland Express. I've shared this in a couple threads today, so you may have already seen our message. If not...

    As you all know, the best feedback and company review you can get is from your fellow driver. As it relates to some of the commentary, we're turning over a new leaf and are here to answers questions as fast and as best we can.

    I'm not here to monitor what folks have to say (positive or negative) about our company. We're not going to get in the way. I'm logged in to serve as a resource and to provide answers to your questions whenever possible.

    Please feel welcome to reach out at any time. We're here to serve.

    I'll do my best to answer your questions and comments in an immediate fashion. Though, sometimes due to the volume of social channels I am actively participating, it can take 24-48 hours to respond.

    Cheers,
    Rob at Heartland Express

    Sorry Rob but I believe we are all pretty much over Heartland now. For me and most drivers I know in this industry you have become irrelevant.
     
    Western flyer and addrenjunky Thank this.
