Pros

The pay was decent, and the benefits were good. About on par with industry standards. Very good pension options

Cons

Ineffective, inept management, at both the local and regional level. The workload is not shared evenly. Incompetent, lazy employees are allowed to do as they please. The more competent you are, and the harder you work, the more they give you. It's feast or famine with the workload. And there is no recognition in the way of bonuses or any other acknowledgment to those people who work there behind's off. There are seldom opportunities for advancement, and pay increases are extremely rare.

Pros

Easy work, great co workers

Cons

Too many unnecessary office employees, and management. Driver facing cameras. Childish policies. A lot of brainstorming that mostly revolves around how to blame a driver or how to take money back out of drivers pockets in favor of paying people in the office whose jobs should be consolidated or replaced. They started paying more after Covid because their hand was forced, then the big minds got together and made new policies to take more than half of that money back from the driver and people who work overtime because clearly those people aren’t smart enough to figure that out and will just take it.
