Pros

Driver self routed via computer dispatch. Self scheduling. Direct deposit.

Cons

Long onboarding time for drivers 2-3 weeks before you actually start earning a paycheck. This is considered standard for them. No written job descriptions. For company this size with no written policies and procedures, it's unusual! Continually moving the goal post and asking more of employees without additional compensation. Technology poorly utilized or underutilized the technology in place. Lower level management is technology adverse. No real advancement opportunities. No written or unwritten Open door policy or a way to take issues, ideas complaints higher than local regional management. If local management doesn't agree with you, your idea is dead. In many cases they are acting like a small mom and pop company, when they have hundreds of employees. They utilize every way to not pay overtime via "day pay" or truck driver exemptions? Lower management does not understand legal ramifications of information put out. No standardized pay tracking, sheets are manually filled out and sent in. Very inefficient workflow at times. Dispatched does not understand asset capabilities and requirements. Work overload for some administrative positions given too many responsibilities. Too much email traffic without a specific purpose.
