Nice place to work
Do not listen to reason and understanding about things that happen in life that are beyond your control. I do not wish to talk bad about Averitt. They are a decent company to work for

Long Hours Alone
Spent long hours and holidays alone in your truck, sleeping in a different town or state everyday.
No specific contact with management in person, just over the comdata,
Never had to personally touch the freight, if so you got $50, if you had to wait for more than 8 hrs for them to load your truck you started to get $20 per hour.s
Prospay was good

Local management and service center staffs are great to work with throughout the company. Pricing dept/corporate office can be frustrating to work with in securing new business. Very inconsistent in pricing offered and company places low to medium value on sales force.
ProsGood service organization in my opinion best in LTL/truckload industry
ConsCorporate office has no interest in paying top dollar for great sale sperformance.

Call Center
Poor management, greedy executives, that would rather be short-handed than to spend a buck. Company profit sharing drives everything. They discourage showing up early or staying late. Turnover is high, favoritism is rampant.
The use of "leader" to label supervision, is an absolute joke. Leaders only look out for themselves and not their people. Call them supervisors or managers, some of these "leaders" have no idea how to lead, but can manage just fine.
The professional image policy should be revisited, the folks in the call center, who never see the customer, should not have a more strict policy than the drivers, who are the true face of the company
ProsGreat benefits package if you get to use it
ConsPoor Management, Little PTO
