Message:: [QUOTE="Bay0Wulf, post: 1425396, member: 1952"]I worked for these guys for a few months. The first thing that bothered me was that their entire fleet is automatic (auto-mated) and the transmissions are not reliable in terms of low speed shifting. Often lurching into gear at a much higher rate of speed than intended. Then, in less than two months after going to work for them, they cut way back on compensation (money), insurance, 401k and the like. This was company wide but effected the "5 year or less" drivers much more than the others. Yes the economy was horrible but I would have expected for them to cut back on runs first which they did shortly afterward anyway. When I left them, they did everything they could to bury my driver's extract under "incidents". I am still trying to get out from underneath them. The equipment is very nice and professionally cared for if you don't mind automatics. I didn't have any complaints with the loads I was given. They don't pay any offset for HazMat. They do put you in some tough positions between the work they demand be done and your logbook / their on-board computer ... getting stuff to match up was almost impossible. They come off as being really a nice place to work for but they will really screw you over if they feel a need to do so.[/QUOTE]
