Pros

If your in the right area of the country, you will be paid well. Once you get out of the yard you don't have a boss breathing down your back.

Cons

Very early start. Management waiting at the fuel pump to test your driving skills after you have been running all day. Very difficult to get the vacation weeks you need to be with your kids when they are off. If something is wrong with the truck they want to blame it on the driver. You can work for them for 10+ years and have a Great Safety record and still not have a guaranteed position with the company.

Pros

We used to have to come in every morning and stay in the office for at least an hour, then go out into the field, come back at least an hour before 5pm and stay in the office. They changed it so we only have to come in in the morning and it's so much nicer.

Cons

I really didn't get along with the sales manager. On my first day, the manager who hired me announced he was leaving. About two weeks into my employment, the new sales manager wanted to make crazy changes to show his authority. It went downhill from there. He made major cutbacks and the things he kept where supposed to be thought of as gifts, such as bottled water.
