WORST of the WORST Total Quaility Logistics TQL

TQL is a bit stunning. They want to co-broker freight all day long. Fine, that's a big part of your business model. But when you say you will only sign a 2-way agreement they get all upset about you even suggesting they would allow something so unseemly.

 

Really? I'll have to try that the next time he calls.

 

"We don't allow double brokering of our freight." That is a direct quote.

 

More likely to be triple brokered?

 

I'm really glad I found this thread while researching TQL because I'll most likely try to get an internship there next summer. I'm a junior in college and seems like the ethics of a lot of brokers are completely different from mine.

I wonder what the recruiter at the career fair is going to say when I mention and discuss this side of TQL that I shouldn't know. I still think it would be a company I'd like to work and hopefully I can make a difference in how some ignorant f###s treat other human beings while being a great broker. If I don't get hired or I ever get fired for defending my beliefs of treating others as I want to be treated, the company never deserved me on the first place.

They cheap, but integrity wise they light years ahead of TQL.

I don't know why they need college degree to broker freight?

 

If TQL is one of the worst! Then which one is the best? ?

 

I am sure every situation is different but I had great rates from both TQL and broker arms of mega carriers.
