Message:: [QUOTE="Midwesttrucker, post: 4235294, member: 97870"]I can tell you this. YRC owns Holland and there are some issues you really have to research before heading over there. Here is what I can tell you because I worked for YRC. They are currently on a 15% giveback on wages and a pension reduction of 75% until 2019 according to the MOU (all YRC companies).  One the positive side for Holland and there are many is they and New Penn are the only companies in the YRC umbrella that are profitable. What Im getting at is when new equipment comes they will be getting newer stuff because they are a money maker. Also the health insurance is fantastic. No out of pocket payroll deductions for you or your dependents along with minimal deductibles for medical services. Currently I work for UPS Parcel but the Freight side is a very good place to call home. Good equipment, benefits, and 100% company paid retirement plan at no cost to you.  If you decide that UPS may not suit you take a good look at ABF Freight. They operate similar to most of the union companies but they are 100% paid into the pension fund with fantastic insurance and excellent wages. Personally check out ABF because a lot of YRC Freight and Holland employees are going over there because its just a more stable and better work environment.[/QUOTE]
