Landair Transport

Going through orientation now. This seems like a great company so far. George is very experienced and shares his knowledge and is very helpful. Looking forward to working for them.

New to trucking this was first job. All in all my experience with landair was great. Fleet manager and dispatch were responsive, up front and fair. Over the road is exactly that and there may be times where you don’t get to go home when you want but I’m sure that par for course and I’m pretty sure it’s not personal when you can’t go home when you like. Whenever I talked to another driver they were also satisfied. I would recommend this company to any driver regardless of experience.

The staff was really RACIST…I would tell my full story but this just happened this week. So I’m really upset about it. I’m happy I made some really good female friends but I do not ever want to even go back to the state of Tennessee because of the things I saw and witnessed with other drivers and myself. They even sent in one African American man to tell me they didn’t want me to drive for them. This company should not be in business. I felt unsafe as I was about to leave but for no reason at all they sent another guy home and we had a flight together. I’ve never experienced racism at this level before but I know I don’t ever want nobody to feel like I did. I should have known better when the African American instructor who came to visit kept throwing me hints. I’m a very diverse person who loves meeting people from all over the world. We should have never went through this.

Stay away from this company! Just absolutely horrible experience. From them trying to force me into driving unsafe equipment, to incorrect pay, to putting an accident on my record that I never had!!!! I already have things in motion to make sure this company is held liable legally!! Stay away from the parent company covenant as well!!! They operate together.

I have screenshots and voice-mail recordings of a Landair recruiter offering me a position at landair hauling GM car parts that paid $300 per day. 1st day in orientation, the old guy told everyone not to ask him about pay because none of us were hired yet. Who would sit thru an orientation before getting hired, anyway after getting thru orientation, they offered me the position at a different pay, .55+/-(can't remember exactly)cpm instead of the $300 per day. This company is not trustworthy nor professional. HR doesn't exist and payroll works 1 day out the week so if corrections are needed you'll have to wait at least another week. I believe everyone at the Lavergne terminal location from dispatchers to managers are blood related because they all lie about anything big or small. The trucks and trailers have 2 to 3 company names on them so you don't know who the hell you driving for. My truck said star transportation on the doors and srt on the roof. The trailers say covenant landair or star...stay away from Landair Transport, Covenant, Star transportation!!!!

I work for this company for A month and was told to bring my truck back to Greeneville as soon as possible and terminated when I arrived with no explanation. One of the company associates told me that I alledgedly cursed at A shipper which is something I have never done in my years as A truck driver. They even put me on an unnecessary 2 day bus ride that went from TN, MS, AL, GA, SC then finally to NC where I was dropped off in Sanford which has NO BUS STATION, no way to catch A Lyft, Uber, etc. when I told them prior that it was easier for me to go to Fayetteville. Very unprofessional how I was treated, terminated and sent home.

This is the worst company I would recommend that you not come to this company they are very unorganized all the drivers are quitting. They talk a good game to get you here and once here it is something totally different. I was supposed to be a regional driver out of Dallas I get here and they have OTR some of everywhere. Do not I repeat do not come work for this company I promise you will regret that decision. Even the places where they have you to deliver to don't like the company. Plus the equipment is trash.

Worse 6 months I ever did with a company but it’s not even the company honestly my dispatchers were terrible 2 of em were Monica & The other guy Mike he just sits around and lies on you and Monica messes up pay every week they both deserve to be fired and them 2 don’t work with you AT ALL or even try to help you be great it’s all about them and they will try to leave you out and miss hometime on purpose whatever helps them sleep at night they don’t care they will ruin your entire health so if you have them 2 I advise you to switch to another account ASAP

These guys don’t care about nothing all they care about is that you get your load there on time and yo better pay attention to your mileage because the are super slick

no work/life balance , insurance denies everything, ZERO driver support the only good thing is the pay but it isnt that great. on hold with breakdown for 6+ hours then they hang up on you call you back with a one ring hang up so the records show they " tried to call you back" but hand up as soon as you answer. and your dispatcher/manager is useless, zero help.

Easy dedicated run from Virginia to Atlanta with backloads from Atlanta. Worse part is being in Atlanta.

They do not care about drivers. They do not care about your home time. They will leave you places/cancel loads on you and never say anything about it.

What is the best part of working at the company? The pay was only thing that was decent. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Over weight on tentems no matter where you placed them, having to return to the shipper to have trailer reworked and no pay gir your wasted time. Said 95% drop/hook, was more like 50% or less. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? The bosses were great. The company itself was awesome. The recruiter lied (ofcourse) about the weight, the run itself, and drop/hook %. What is a typical day like for you at the company? Pick up Load at Dr. PEPPER in Columbus ohio, drive to one of three drops in Pennsylvania. Either get lucky with a rare drop/ hook or wait three-five hours to get unloaded / reloaded. Then head back to Columbus to drop in one of three locations. Recruiter said it would be pick up load in Columbus, drop in Penn, bring back load of pallets to Columbus. Total lie.

What is the best part of working at the company? There is no best part of working for this company. If this is your only option, get your 3 months of OTR experience, then run fast as you can in the opposite direction. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Everything. To be more specific Landair (Sonoco) dispatch and management for this account in particular is extremely unprofessional with communication being one sided. In other words, they communicate to you, but on your end NOT. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Sucks. I said it all in the previous questions. What is a typical day like for you at the company? You are a prisoner in your tractor until they see fit to release you.

It's a great starter company, but I want to grow and see a bigger difference in my future. I can't complain for it being what it is. I would recommend them to any newer driver

What is the best part of working at the company? The best part of working for the company was getting paid every week. Are you happy now? What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Being on the road away from your family and not getting the miles they guarantee you to get which is never What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Google it for yourself and you'll find out What is a typical day like for you at the company? A typical day for me at this company was just a stressful one

Good pay, terrible management. Back stabbing and petty gossip is rampant. Do aa Google search and you will see the same names of incompetent, petty managers.

You never know what your doing from day to day so you can never plan anything outside of work. If you're late or sick your paycheck basically gets cut in half.
