Training for one week with a really good trainer like Chris. It's definitely interesting and worth your time to learn a new skill like unloading a concrete !!

Great company to drive for by trucking company standards. Flexible in their scheduling and will work with you. Some of the trailers are starting to show their age and getting at little stiff, and the product we deliver is sometimes a hassle, but overall I'd recommend this company. Very few complaints, and I'm pretty good at complaining

Management is unorganized & there’s no leadership in the company no direction no future you hear the term used to a lot used to have good runs used to have good equipment there’s only a couple of good runs that pay good money the rest are just time consuming & don’t pay to be enough to be gone all week the equipment is junk worst I’ve seen in 5 years of driving there’s no maintenance it’s a fight to get anything fixed only a select few are given good dependable safe trucks to drive & it’s favoritism on how new trucks are handed out.KC is relaxed about a lot of safety rules that mega carriers ain’t , pay is good if you have a 600 mile route everyday ,Trucks run 70mph no split speed , consistent pay with dedicated routes benefits are decent average with other carriers.Owner operators get whatever they want they can bump a 20 year seniority company driver if he/she is doing the route they want even if there a new hire owner operator.

What is the best part of working at the company? Home daily. Nothing else good to say. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Dealing with dispatchers who are constantly stressed out. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Nobody likes anybody. They especially hate their drivers. Terminal manager too good to talk to drivers. Walks through a room full of them and doesn’t even acknowledge anyone. What is a typical day like for you at the company? Just go and do my job. No job satisfaction at all.

It's an ok company sometimes, but sometimes you're lucky to even break the 8 hour mark. Some of the new drivers are absolute slobs. Nasty stuff on inside of windshields, etc. We have a policy where you're supposed to fuel trucks when you're done for the day but half the drivers don't, and when you report it, half of the dispatchers do not do anything about it. Trucks are starting to fall apart and due to the supply chain shortages, new ones are a few years out. One of the good-ish things is that they work ok at times with your personal time outside of the job.

It's a good company, but they slip seat the trucks and that's not good because it can be a safety issue you don't know what could be wrong with the vehicle.

I worked here for a year.I drove out of the Sherman Mississippi terminal. I left a few months back. They treated me good during my time here. The drivers help each other out and everyone is nice fore the most part and make you feel welcome My reasons for leaving was nothing personal really I got offered more money so I took advantage of opportunity. The pay at kc is ok. Its not the best good thing is all they pull is dedicated routes so you pretty much go to all the same places. All the dispatchers are good for the most part and if you are broke down they try to get you back up and running as soon as they can. Kc is a tear one hauler for Toyota manufacturing so you haul car parts and run most the Midwestern states. Your hometime feels like its short. You basically come in long enough for a 34 hour reset and the go right back out. The benefits are pretty good you have 401k you can start once you have been there 90 days. Like any trucking company they have their problems but all in all they are a decent company to work for I think. It is whatever you choose to make out of it just like anything else.

It is a nice company with good trucks and great health benefits. Overtime after 40 hours is great. Dispatch is better than any place i have worked. Pay could be better but, the work is insanely easy drop and hook.

Only can review my experience at the Princeton,In terminal. I was an over the road driver for them. Dispatchers and operations manager were excellent to work for. Probably the best group of folks I'd ever worked with. Fast paced environment and plenty of miles if your willing to work. Newer equipment that's maintained.

For almost 8 years I worked for this company, I never recommend it to fellow drivers, nor would I now that I've left. It is a company that only cares about itself, and it's bottom line. I have no hard feelings towards KC, and if all you want from a company is to drive, with no advancement what so ever and are willing to put you whole personal life second to them, then KC Transportation is the place for you
