Apex Logistics has a lot of very friendly very professional very helpful people... All but the supervisor in the AR Department, Tiffany. She was very catty, impatient and unprofessional and she certainly must have only gotten the promotion to AR supervisor because the vacancy had to be filled quickly. All the other ladies in the AR office were very nice and pleasant to work with. (And other ladies that work there that weren't in the AR Department like Sharon were very very nice and brought a pleasant Aura to the work environment.)
LOOKS LIKE THE BEST START FOR MY CAREER, AND EXPERIENCE. I FOUND THE GATE WAY FOR THE CHANCE TO BE COME A PROFESSIONAL "OWNER OPERATOR " THANK YOU APEX FOR THE OPPORTUNITY.
Nice place. Went for a job ad and didn't get a call back. Their loss. The lady I met was nice
Worst place I've ever worked for
They don’t paid to their carriers
Very happy to work for them
Great place awsome company thanks for the recommendation juan moreno
Apex was treating H & N drivers like step children.
Seems like a good place to work.!!!
Not a fan of this company, many better options out there
Very respectful place of employment .
Terrible place to work. Head dispatcher, a female, very disrespectful. A lot of driver's do not report maintenence issues so the next driver gets stuck with the problem. No wonder, management doesn't care so why should the drivers. Head of management very immature, he makes farting noises around the women and expects you to laugh at his immaturity. New drivers beware, Apex has different pressurized trailers, they will send you out with a type you have never worked. So, if you go out to the consignee and you have problems, their attitude, it's part of the job you deal with it. They call you while you are at home sleeping to see if your coming in. Terrible place to work.
These People at Apex absolutely Have NO consideration for the Traffic laws on the Highway These Trucks have Been in EVERY lanes , South Bound and North Bound, Every Day for at least 5-6 Months!!!
I have worked for these folks for 5 years. They have taken excellent care of me and gone out of there way even when they did not have to. I would recommend them to any good solid drivers, especially when switching from otr to local.
Do they Hire female Drivers just starting out with doubles , I've driven tractor trailer for 2 years now but wanted a local job??
Great company to work for.
The company is relatively small but they have been around for a long time. The days can sometimes feel drawn out waiting to offload at customers. At the end of the day it's not a hard job.
Only good if you need the experience, home daily means stretched out long days . Depends on your situation if it’s worth it or not . Plenty of smaller companies with better pay and work environment.
Over worked. Underpaid. Under appreciated. They will work you to death. Over managed by dispatchers, good luck trying to get a day off. Expect calls from dispatch on your personal time.
What is the best part of working at the company? Good company to work for. Pay isn’t the best but the hours are plentiful. In fact, a 12-15 hour day, 5 days a week is what you’ll be slaving, er working. Home time every day, just enough time for you to shower, shave, and sleep 6 hours before doing it again. Weekends off are nice, to catch up on your sleep and do things that you’ve been neglecting all work week. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Working 12-15 hours a day is typical. Not much stress from work. It’s actually boring , but hey, we get paid hourly. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? The culture is professional and each does what’s required to get you on the road. Nothing negative to say about the employees. Good people. What is a typical day like for you at the company? The first day of the week dictates the rest of the weeke. Meaning if you get an early start Monday, the following days starts later on the next day. So by the time Friday comes around; depending how early you started Monday, you may be starting about midday by Friday.
What is the best part of working at the company? Best part was that the work is easy What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Trying to communicate w/ dispatch via on board tablet What is the work environment and culture like at the company? So so all depends on your attitude on a daily...Office ladies are cool & the term manager is cool but won't really go to bat for you
Clock in, if trucks are available, pre trip Check in with dispatch for loads Eld system can have issues depending on the truck, certain drivers disliked the front and back facing cameras, hours can be long, i did not mind, Many tractors still require repairs, work culture could be better some say abit toxic at times, some are slackers at the yard. Overall Low Sense of accomplishment.
What is the best part of working at the company? The owner & his wife would actually show up to some of the driver's functions to meet & greet their drivers.. Talk to you like a regular person if I had something to say he would listen. While some big companies owner's Never show their face. And don't know your name and will never tell Uu THANK Uu.. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Dealing with Favoritism from dispatch & supervisors What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Easy going environment with a mixed culture of people What is a typical day like for you at the company? Free trip your truck go pick up your loads and do it again tomorrow
Good company that abuses their drivers bcos they’ve somewhat cornered the market on bulk commodities. So they work them 70 hrs bcos they know that there’s no where else in the commodities industry they can go and make as much…and even though the pay is decent it’s still below standard. There are advancement opportunities but there are no raises. There’s no paid holidays off.
I have been working for/with apex for 2 years. 1 year as a company driver and one as an owner operator. If you work hard and act respectable you will be treated very well by management and dispatch. the hardest part of this position is dealing with the weather while offloading.
When I started at Apex they were understaffed and didnt have a trainer to send on the road with me. Despite not having the personnel to send me with a trainer I was given massive amounts of support and many numbers to call if I had any problem with what I was supposed to do. The tasks of delivering materials in this manner was new to me yet with the help I received from everybody helped me to succeed in learning every aspect of the job in a short amount of time. The guidance I received actually helped me to do so well that I was able to excel and give others advice and guidance. It was a good experience overall. The only issue I had was that the personnel that dont regularly handle the client accounts didnt always have detailed information about clients/accounts that they would be handling during their shifts.
It's good for me I have no.copmlaints going on my 3rd year wish they had more paid holidays other than that its cool it can be some long days but it's hourly
It’s ok till they start with the micro management. I been here for 12yrs and still feel like a number. Seniority is a non factor here and not much more to say. Apps have been put out just waiting on a call.
I worked here for 11 months, no respect horrible equipment work 70 hrs a week like a dog…driver facing cameras and they ding your dac report for every little thing no matter how insignificant. They will definitely use you and fire you very stressful work environment, the safety team is out of line they don’t pay your pto when you take it are vigorously looking to take your safety bonus every quarter by spying on you with their camera’s and have no problems firing you without warning. When COVID hit they had confirmed cases in the office and in the amongst the drivers and they purposely neglected to say anything to the drivers intentionally exposing them to contract the virus knowing if we know we would have probably took some time off. Definitely not a good company to work for.
Pro. Great place to work, you get as many days off as you need, many different routes to chose from. Con. A bit dusty, loud, usually one hr outside the truck at wherever weather condicion.

Bad pay mean people and mangers ask the dumb question on most day it was ok but if it rained or bad weather for get it you are going to have a problem day
The bulk trailers are cobbled together from canalized parts from other trailers. Its 2020 and most of the trailers are spring suspension not air so they beat you up. Classic bad dispatchers get the load out no matter safety be damned and the driver gets blamed for everything.
