Pros

Benefits are great, they have a lot of services available to you such as a CDL Legal defender, financial issues, personal issues, and much more. They pay for the home depot and sears account suppose to be good i haven't made it to that point because the orientation process was horrible.

Cons

Disorganized, if you make it to your mentor your free from that horrible hotel they put you . They supply no transportation to gas stations, grocery stores etc. only to their swift facility. They don't seem to care about how they treat you. Not to many friendly people that will offer you a ride to stores at the Gary Terminal. I was lied to about the pay you will only make state min wage for the two days of orientation after 3 days of orientation you will be sent out with a mentor to train for a possible 6 weeks depending on you. My recruiter made it seem like i was going to be home the weekend she lied. She said the hotel had breakfast, i thought continental, wrong, more like a white doggy bag with a hard oak granola bar muffin and tiny orange juice. They pay for lunch thats the decent meal you will get. Stay away from this company, don't consider it its horrible you will get lied to just so they get you down to the terminal. When its to good to be true you will know. All i can say to each its own.

Pros

There aren't any pros besides them lying to you making you feel like you're the liar...

Cons

They make you feel like a liar with a false positive hair follicle test then they cut you off and don't even return any of your calls or give you a chance to prove yourself. The recruiter was really my friend until those results came in and then every time I got to try to talk to him to prove that they were wrong never even returned my call or answer the email
