A good place to start your career
Diesel Technician/ trailer technician (Current Employee) – Pine Brook, NJ – July 17, 2018
Estes is a good place for kids to start out in their career and gain knowledge to grow in the future but isn’t the best of places because I never got the opportunity to expand my knowledge and got stuck only working on trailers and not tractors
Phenomenal Organization
Terminal Manager (Former Employee) – Bensalem, PA – July 17, 2018
Estes Express offered me my first managerial role. I started out on the dock in college and was offered a supervisor role upon graduation. The culture was so positive and it was a great place to learn.
Very fast paced but challenging position
Dispatcher/Planner (Former Employee) – Simpsonville, SC – July 16, 2018
Overall it was ok, the main reason I left was wages and benefits. I was offered more in both areas that I could not pass up. I did give them the opportunity to match. At first they did not. I put 2 weeks notice in and then they said ok. However I had already given their chance and did not go back on my word
fast pace good paying job
Clerk II (Current Employee) – Eugene, OR – July 4, 2018
would not leave company but transferring has seemed to be a challenge
where I am, I am considered an asset. Hard working employee.
The supervisor & terminal manager Have expressed to me How great of an employee I am so I do not understand why the terminals down south have resistance to letting me fill their open positions

Good people bad management
Forklift Operator (Former Employee) – Fontana, CA – July 2, 2018
Dock workers are the best around but the management could use some help, especially terminal manager. Terminal manager is very vindictive and slimy, if you are willing to put up with it then it’s a good place to work
youwork what you want, a lot of work

Management is horrendous.
Class A CDL Driver (Current Employee) – Bensalem, PA – June 28, 2018
Horrible place to work for. Scumbag management. Do not apply here. Don’t care about how hard of a worker you are. They get the drivers out late on there runs. Then expect you to drive like a maniac to get everything done.
Good place to work
Linehaul team driver (Current Employee) – Columbus, OH – June 27, 2018
If you have ever worked for a truck load carrier, you can appreciate this job a lot more. They are currently adding new trucks, trailers, and dollys. They are also adding more terminal locations across the country, currently there are about 240. As a linehaul driver we go terminal to terminal, drop and hook.
Pros
Good work schedule and time off
Cons
Insurance could be better
Great place to work

Work a lot of hours
It’s okay if you want to live on the road
Road Driver (Former Employee) – Barling, AR – June 23, 2018
I have been driving for 20 years. I think that it’s a decent place to work. I would still be there if they would have other regular routes in my area.
Pros
You are put up in hotel for your break.
Cons
Small terminals you have little chance to get a regular route
Productive and easy going.
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) – McCook, IL – June 20, 2018
Helping customers,I learned how to multitask and how to handle pressure situations. Management was great to work with. The culture was family oriented. Most enjoyable part was getting the chance to meet customers face to face on occasion.
Pros
Being able to work Monday - Friday. Great place to wok
Cons
There were no cons

Stressful, poorly managed
Clerk (Current Employee) – Romulus, MI – June 19, 2018
A very stressful place to work. Managed very poorly. I received nearly no training on the computer system but expected to know how to use it. Even if you do your work and get it done, management will have something negative to say. Problems are never resolved.
Pros
None
Cons
Use you until you can't take it anymore
It's a solid place to be
Senior Engineer and Team Lead (Former Employee) – Richmond, VA – June 8, 2018
Estes was a great place to work except for being in a basement. I truly enjoyed the culture and my co-workers. Work-life balance was important among the team and the leadership cared about you. I truly enjoyed my time at Estes.

Travel all over the United States, fun work environment
Cons
IT has a big separation with the business but that is changing
