dockworker
dock worker (Current Employee) – Dayton, OH – October 18, 2018
Great job. We work 6 days, 10 hours sometimes more. Too many people come and go, they don't get it, it is an easy job, biggest problem is the weather, working on a open dock. 19 bucks per hour, best pay I'd eva got.

great paychecks
Cons
no direct deposit

Good local driving career!
City Driver/Dock Worker (Current Employee) – DFW, TX – October 11, 2018
As a city driver I get to have my own route and have for the most part the same customers which I can create a good work friendship. I like that I get the opportunity to also work on the dock and load and unload the trucks beside driving. This is a good driving career and I am looking to stay for a long time. The pay is good and competitive and now we have brand new 2019 Peterbuilt trucks! Lots of hours and long days but at the end of the week the pay is good. Weekly pay, good schedule, home every day... could not ask for more!
Pros
Excellent weekly pay, new trucks, home daily
Cons
2 weeks behind on payroll, scanners have lots of issues, no vision, need more new trailers
Good place to get your experience until something better comes along.
Driver (Current Employee) – Flint, MI – October 9, 2018
The employees that have been there the longest run the place. I started making a lot more money doing other runs. Then out of nowhere Im bumped back down without warning making what I was when I started. All because the other guy has seniority. And wanted my new route. Its not right or fair. So if you have no experience driving its a maybe as they hire anyone with a cdl. Other than that move on this place is a joke.
Pros
Can make decent money.
Cons
Employee ran

What is the interview process like?
Decent upper management but lacking tools to do the job
Dispatcher (Former Employee) – Texas – October 5, 2018
Terminal managers are decent however we did not have the proper equipment to do the daily tasks. Basically we were set up to fail. Turnover rate was through the roof. It was easy to get terrible workers approved through corporate but qualified workers were not approved for hire. Big brother always over your shoulder.
Pros
Flexibility with hours, family friendly
Cons
equipment, facility, low staff, no perks, insurance stinks, no 401K match
Good job plenty of room for advancement

Great LTL trucking Company
Local Driver (Current Employee) – Milwaukee, WI – October 5, 2018
I’ve been a Local p & d driver for CT for quite some time now and I plan building my trucking career with them for long run. The pay is great and weekly. I can always put in the extra work if I want because there’s plenty of it.
Pros
Sign on Bonus, Weekly Pay, Home everyday
Cons
Dock work
Dedicate your life
Helpdesk Support and Handheld Specialist (Current Employee) – Sterling Heights, MI – October 4, 2018
95% of their employees are hired directly from inside of the company starting everyone at call center. They pay fairly well for level one customer service, but that's only because they demand so much of an individual. They do not care about what hours you work and will demand overtime occasionally. If you have no life outside work I suggest you take this job, because they will work you as much as possible until they get complaints from HR. I can not say for any of the drivers or dock workers. TL;DR Payed well at the cost of your well being
Pros
High starting pay
Cons
High intensity work hours, little breaks, no lunch, demands overtime, broken ticketing system
Great choice for a long term career!
Line Haul Driver (Current Employee) – DFW, TX – October 1, 2018
I come in to work and get to do my run and go home. Easiest job with great pay, can not beat that! I have the choice of volunteering for Saturday work and put extra cash in my pocket. Excellent pay and opportunity to make money!. Plenty of work and have not slow down. We now have 2019 Peterbuilt trucks and it is nice to drive a brand new truck! This is a long term career. Need to make the right choice and join the family of Central Transport like I did!
Pros

City Driver (Current Employee) – Rock Island, IL – September 28, 2018

Line Haul Driver (Current Employee) – DFW, TX – September 24, 2018

I get paid good money and get plenty of hours. I have the choice of volunteering for Saturday work and put extra cash in my pocket. Excellent pay and opportunity to make money!. I get to work the dock which gets me an opportunity to load and unload trailers besides driving. Plenty of work and opportunity to make money. Looking to be here for a long time!
Pros

Beware by far the worst LTL carrier
Driver/Operator (Former Employee) – Monterrey Park, Ca – September 22, 2018
You will regret it working for this LTL carrier, trailers and forklifts are safety dot concerns, if you complain you will be in the black list, the tractor get assigned to other drivers, poor benefits insurance, no overtime after 8hrs!
Pros
Drivers are helpful
Cons
No 10min breaks, dispatcher keeps messaging, how long till you loaded
