What do you like about working at Stevens Transport?

"I enjoyed the comraderie that the drivers had amongst themselves. Not to mention the fact that I got paid to see the country. I can honestly say... One of the easiest jobs in the world. The only part to consider, is the long hours on the road.. Got to make it intresting somehow."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Have your CDL pre-employment. Don't go through the school, hoping to get your CDL, as it's very expensive if you can't afford to reimburse the loan. Be prepared to be gone from home for LONG periods of time, and expect to work under serious time constraints while maintaining the most professional demeanor."

What don't you like about working at Stevens Transport?

"I believe that the company could have handled the attention to detail when it concerned the drivers allocated time off. There were periods of time, where I was out on the road for more than 3 months, and didn't get the opportunity to take time off. And when I had the opportunity, I was in Canada, or some distant location away from home. I think the logistics could be ALOT better, considering that they DO what is called a RE-POWER, alot. A driver runs a load as far as he can get it, and if he runs out of hours, they transfer the trailer to another tractor whose driver has the hours to make the destination. That way, the load gets to the reciever. For a while.. I was refered to as the RE-POWER KING."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Accident prevention wouldn't be such a big concern if all the drivers trucks were equipped with engine exhaust brakes, it would provide a necessary safety cushion for the company, and would prevent the spending of MILLIONS in accident damage control."
