      Pros

      No pros at all Bunch of scam artists

      Cons

      Where do I begin ? ... pay is bad for a lease operator that's taking on hefty truck payments ,paying fuel , all mechanical issues are paid by lease op. They will run you hard and give you zero home life ..I FOREWARN they will wait till truck is almost paid for ( if u make it that far ) then do everything in their power to get rid of you and take the truck back ... This is not a good place to work

      Horrible place

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Shiny truck They will hire anybody even criminals with federal charges or crimes against women. Dispatch is decent

      Cons

      You can't make money, every two weeks they take 1500 plus fuel, DEF, repairs(and there are lots) and every other expense you have, Average pay is 300 biweekly, and lately most drivers owed $500-$2000. All 2017-2020 trucks need work, regularly. They base the pay at 6mpg but there is no way you can maintain 6mpg, so each mile you don't you owe. They are self insured but will charge you $75 every two weeks for an insurance buy-down for as long as your there. They micromanage you like crazy, You won't have a life.

      Pros

      For the most part, I truly enjoyed working with my dispatchers and loved most of the runs.

      Cons

      lies by management: I wanted to go on the Northern Ontario fleet and I was blatantly told by someone in management that they don't go to there. I am from Northern Ontario. Due to my own circumstances, I had to let the company go.

      Unethical practices at top management. Complete disregard for existing labour laws & standards.

      Pros

      they will hire anyone & try them out.

      Cons

      Family owned Canadian company where only family members hold top management positions. Favoritism & nepotism at the top. No regard for Canadian labour laws & standards. Poor starting pay & promise the moon. Constant micro management. Lack of decent corporate culture & use of profanity is rampant at work place. Unethical sales scheme where small carriers are used as a pawn to achieve their sales target. No career progression at all. Company refuses to pay for cell phone usage where you are making more than 50% of your calls to US & Canada as a long distance. This is very unfair to employees.
