    Pony express group is based out of Chicago il area. Do not go there. It is a huge rip off . They pay you 3 weeks later hold8ng 2 weeks of check knowing you will quit. They lease you broken down trucks even if its new and trailers are broke. You end up paying 1850 a week for all plus 14 cents a mile for maintenance. They only fix it when it really breaks down. They will chatge you hotels and ubers and plain tickets. They will not pay you if u take 3 days off no matter if they send you a settlement they will hold it until you get next load. They will take also $2,500 in deposits. You will lose 3 weeks of money no matter what they hire many bring many there under lies. Giving you all the sweet talk to get you there. Once there you don't have much of a choice either work or go home if you go home they will make you pay your way back home. It's a huge rips of same as super ego almost. Pays on loads are good what they show you but in the end they will keep all your money. Do not trust Doug . He a fat black man thinks he is top #### . Pavel is good guy but they also manipulate the logs they don't tell you but elogs are swift app . Swift app will change your logs if needed they will send you a code to the app in order to change it. They call people in office to approve it.

    Why these modern day drivers keep going to these low life companies from Chicago with the same results. Trucks breaking down, no pay, charge backs, etc. You would be better off not working at all instead of these Chicago "Mafia" type companies

    So Doug is black. What color is everyone else? I preferred to drive a white truck? Preferably a Volvo? My curiosity looms......

    Modern drivers with bad records end up with these outfits sometimes...it is occasionally necessary to go to these to rehab a career. Others are just inexperienced, maybe gullible, only worry about the money part without understanding the industry.

    True but with all the bad reviews and the negative "press" on these sleez balls I would be running away from them faster then I looked at them in the first place.

    Some, (not many but some) people do come here and read all of the horrors stories about these 1099 companies. Then most of them go ahead and sign up with one anyway. I guess they they they are smarter then everyone that got screwed and it will work out for them. Rarely it will. Then they are back on here crying about it. SMH.

    It's a chance to make $2500.00+ per week, after expenses, and be your own boss, pick and choose loads, runs, etc.

    What's not to like?:eek:
