Good Day my Future Fellow Truckers,
I would like to share some insight on this company of you are interested in working for them. First of all let me start off by informing you of what they will tell you at orientation.. the very FIRST thing.. "Welcome new drivers to JB HUNT.....Please dont believe anything you hear that is negative about this company". This will be told to you as soon as class starts and then it is all down hill from there. During the course of 3 days of orientation you will see many drivers leaving the classroom for 1 reason or another...they are the LUCKY ones... they won't be back. The instructors will act as if you are best friends and try to sell you everything so that you can get the least amount of money on you're check.. say no to everything for the time being, chances are..YOU wont be there for 3 months..they will convenietley forget to inform you that you cant change you're mind on anything you agree to for 3 months..of course this will be told to you after you have signed and if they do tell you you can withdrawal or change... they will pass the buck telling you can call Corporate and they will change it... it won't happen. They will give you a nice shiny yellow JB HUNT credit Card and tell you "ITS just like a Mastercard".. cant be used everywhere" ..Negative . If you do get lucky and it works, JB HUNT will charge you $5 and then of course you get charged from where you used it and it will be deducted from you're pay.Instuctors will ask "If you should need an advance before you get you're truck, "JB HUNT will give it to you because they want to take care of there drivers".. they also will charge you $10...deducted from you're pay. You will be asked if you want direct deposit, you can sign yes and it will be disregarded and you're weekly settlement will come on the JB HUNT Comdata card anyway...know why..so they can CHARGE you to get your money out. The instructors will make a good attempt to sit with you in class at the computer filling out the information for direct deposit and then suddenly the computers will malfunction and you will be instructed that you can contact corporate and they will do it... Negative.. corporate will tell you to do it on your home computer . The orientation " 2008 DRIVERS MANUAL" handbook that will be given to you...JB HUNT reserves the right to disregard any and all policies that are within this book,which means they can deny you anything and that includes certain types of pay..., layover, short haul, shuttle runs, ect.ect.This will be told to you when you have a dispute in regards to pay after you have been hired. You will be required to attend from 7 am until 5 pm which will be placed on your logs, however for pay purposes, you will be asked to sign for only 8 hours of pay, which is what you will only be compensated for. After the first day of orientation you will feel something inside...kinda feels like you're being scammed..Guess what ..you are. If you complete orientation and get in a truck, You will regret the day you let the recruiter with the soft southern voice entice you to come to orientation. This companys staff at Lowell AR. are deceptive, untrustworthy, manipulative and can and will falsify anything and everthing to justify their actions..they will enjoy breaking you down, and yes they will break you and you know what..they wont lose any sleep over it...they will have another 30 men and women waiting to go to orientation on Monday and Tuesday. Thats 60 recruits a week, 240 a month. You gotta ask yourself.. Do they really have that many trucks? Why such a huge turnover? You already have your answer.
