Pros

At one point I use to get 55+ hours but since the beginning of 2019 I averaged no more than 20 hours a week maybe 30 if you're lucky.

Cons

1.) No life 2.) No Advancement opportunities 3.) No Raises 4.) Checks are sometimes late if you don't have direct deposit 5.) Very Very Low hours 6.) You're not guaranteed 40 hours 7.) They have a new policy where you give a crew a ride which is a couple of hours and then you have to clock out, go home and wait by the phone and repeat that until you max out on hours of service, and if you don't answer your phone you get written up. So basically your life is by the phone unless its your day off. 8.) Its a very very stressful job 9.) Always tired 10.) You cant back up or back up with crews on board unless you call and ask permission to do it and explain why you put yourself in that position. Its pathetic. I've been driving all my life and never had a problem backing up more so having to ask permission to back up, its one of the stupidest policies ever!! 11.) Did I mention No LIFE!! 12.) Don't work for Hallcon unless you want to live your life by the phone with a very low hourly rate, no raises ever! and no advancement opportunities. Its a messed up place to work for!

Pros

They work with all schedules and the supervisor is very understanding and works with your schedule great for me because I’m a fulltime student.

Cons

Your on call 24/7 when you do work so the hours are scattered
