walmart is the best driving job i've ever had

If you want to get paid well and treated with respect apply for a walmart fleet driving position. Most hire infrequenty as there is little turnover, but persistance will pay off if you have a safe driving record and experience, with little job hopping. They treat you like the professional you are, and are always looking for ways to improve fleet safety and efficiency as well as driver satisfaction.

 

all I can say is the pay is excellent, more than you probably expect, and the benefits are probably average with good medical, dental and vision. rx is $4 for generics, you can see your own drs

 

I feel the benefits are probably standard with most large companies, good medical, dental and vision. 401k, life and add. Average home time is 2 days a week, but you can go home at night if you're close to home. I work a week on/off position and love it. They have all kinds of different programs, 6 on 3 off which gives you the option of having weekends off once a month, and even full time 6 mos. then week on/off the other 6 mos. Assigned tractors, mostly International or Freightshaker. They have a rider program for spouses and children that are school age, no pets though. Mileage is dependent on the area of country you are located in. More miles out west, than the south.

 

yes, bonuses are given for no tickets/accidents each year. The trucks are governed at 65mph, and the fleet utilizes APU's for no idle comfort. Rider policy is as stated in previous thread, and you have a choice of ins. co. to choose from, all with reasonable bi-weekly pay deductions. I'm sorry to avoid the pay question, but I can tell you we get paid for everything we do from drop and hooks, layover, breakdown, wait time, accident, multi-stop, single stop, vacation, meetings, DOT physicals, random drug tests, everything. If you enjoy working for a company that treats you with respect, values your opinion, doesn't hassle you if you need time off, has good equipment, 100% NO touch freight, this is the company for you. We have virtually no turnover, and continue to thrive in slow economic times

 

Also, I can tell you we are paid actual HUB miles, not Household Goods miles or any of the like.
