Pros

Good benefits including health insurance and 401(k). Good employees to work with both in Dispatch and Customer Service.

Cons

The company is currently merging their Dispatch and Customer Service positions, expection employees to take on more work responsibility without an increase in pay. They say they will allow employees to move up in the company but when that employee is ready they are "too good to go anywhere else".

Hello- MTS does allow the employees to continue to be successful and move into other positions. All jobs are posted internally first, allowing the chance for anyone to apply from within. In regards to the merging of both Dispatch and our Customer Service - management is still discussing this as a possible option, however with reassessments of positions - MTS does intend to stay competitive with their wages. If you have any questions about openings where you would like to move up, please feel free to see the HR Specialist - as well as if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. There is an open door policy where you have the opportunity to express yourself to management so any ideas can be discussed and reviewed. Thank you!

Pros

Great company. Better equipment now. Pays is good can make over $200 in a day. Work weekends if want not mandatory unless GM or Ford has a big production. Dispatch will work with drivers. Pay raise and rates are different from local and OTR. Vacation pay and benefits are great. Two weeks off in summer (July) & Christmas & New years. Can't beat that cause you won't get burnt out.

Cons

I'd like to make more money. I cannot stand most of the drivers.

MTS success is based on the success of the employees - which is why throughout the years MTS has been able to expand the company; even through the rough economic times.
