Here is the scoop:

FACTS:

P&D drivers load/unload their own trailers everyday. So, you punch in between 6-7 AM, unload IB linehaul and load your own trailer. Run your route and then unload/load linehaul for night run. Most likely dock doesn't have forklift for each driver, so you wait/pallet jack in between. They use a handheld device that clocks in/out driver, it OFTEN miscalculates your hours and you have to argue with TM for all your pay.

If they are recruiting you from a different company they will promise you the world and tell how much they have improved in past 2 years, the only promise they will keep is your salary. Insurance has few choices and high copays compared to other companies plans.

OPINION:

Most hostile working conditions I have ever seen. High turnover rate of TMs, dispatchers, sales, drivers, etc. I have worked for three transportation companies and they were by far the worst.

Who are you working for now?

If you are currently employed I would think hard about making the switch. If you are unemployed, then what do you have to lose?
