Pros

It was a decent company when the Robert's family was involved in the day to day operations. Since a bunch of rejects from competitors have been hired to run the company, the company that once was is no more. It said a lot about the new corporate management when Larry Jr. was so dissatisfied with the way the company was being ran that Larry Sr. bought out Jr's share.

Cons

No respect for anyone below service center managers. Hires outside carriers to haul the freight and tells company drivers there is no freight. Demands the drivers be ready to work everyday, but then tells them they are not needed today, but make sure you are ready tomorrow because we might need you.
