This is about orientation in Shepherdsville Kentucky. The place feels like a prison. Concrete walls no windows. No private showers or bathrooms. Your dwelling during orientation consist of a bed dresser dim lit lamp and TV. They require a new physical even if yours is up to date and seems like they try to force c pap machine on you. Recruiters do not prepare you for the conditions. Instead they lie about it.
Good company to work for. They care about their employees and the places they deliver to
The worst Company ever at first started off good. The recruiter orientation the first dispatcher was great but wen they switch my dispatcher she came off aggressive and rude, but I tried to be cool with her. I asked them to switch me with a different dispatcher so I guess she didn’t like that she for a reason to write me up I had to leave
R903 whoever drives this truck needs to be retrained at the minimum I would take away their CDL stopping in the middle of the road in the merge where only one lane is open is by far unacceptable not only did this driver back up traffic for 10 minutes doing God knows what but then he couldn't even maintain the speed limit to get traffic rolling again at the post and work zone speed limit going 20 mph under it. This driver is going to cause an accident your safety department needs to get on this.
Great company. Everyone cares about what the driver's goals are, not just the load. I've been here 3 years, and I plan on retiring here.
I drove to summit for 2 year great people meet there HR and dispachers friendly and profesional I miss all them
They do not value in there drivers at all Do not go to this company if you think you going make some money It counts on where you live to make money They don't pay for parking It's like duke and north Carolina State in the office they don't communicate They don't care about there trucks
Awful drivers your company have, got an encounter with one in snellville,ga. Old white dude got mad becuase on a heavy traffic day and also red light, the car in front of him moved so i saw space to change lanes which i did, i was in my motorcycle and i keep my left and he went forward to put his front tired next to me where i can feel the heat of the motor and start telling me he will run me over, he was an inch close to hit the car in front of me, glad i wasnt carring or i will of take that as a threat. by the way he perfectly saw me, and i was out of his way, i have video proof.
Been driving for Summitt for a year now. As an O/O if you won't to run hard you will. The dispatchers are really good ppl ( night dispatch there's one or two that doesn't won't to be there seems like but a majority of them are there if you need anything. I really can't say anything bad about my experience with them. Great company great work atmosphere. I made good money with the miles I ran.
Great company to work for! Everyone treats you like a family member versus a number! I recommend them if you want to feel at home!
Hopefully I get the job Summit trucking is amazing the people working in Clarksville indiana couldn't ask for a better group of people
I have worked for several Trucking companies in the last 10 or so years. I can honestly say I've been here a week since orientation and I've found a great family environment and a company that cares more about the driver than any I have ever worked for. I CAN SEE BEING HERE A LONG TIME THANKS SUMMITT
I worked here about 10 or 15 years ago. They are excellent folks to work with.
Love this place! Were running team out here on a dedicated ups route and couldnt ask for a better job:)
I’ve been with summitt as a team for almost six months. Very family oriented and care for their drivers. Haven’t had any issues with freight and 90% drop and hook. Very rarely we have to live load or unload. Which in turn keeps you moving. Been home every time we have asked to be. Thanksgiving, Christmas, death or emergency at home, or just to go home for a 34 to hug our kids. Can definitely see me retiring from this company.
As a Truck driver it's hard to find that one company u can actually drive in peace and make a decent leaving. But u don't have to take my word for it I just rather you come see for yourself this is truly a great place to drive for with consistent home time and wonderful benefits
This company is the best company to drive for, they answer the on first name base not your truck number, they get you home on time, the very family oriented and love showing driver appreciation every month .......Team Summitt
In my 29 years of driving tractor trailer, Summitt is one of the best companies I've ever driven for. They ALWAYS have a pre-plan on me and there are plenty of miles to be had. Also, I have no problem getting home time when I need it each month. Very good company and VERY friendly staff.
What is the best part of working at the company? Flexible and understanding of thing's that come up . What is the most stressful part about working at the company? No overtime !! Low pay !! No raises!! Work Every 5th Saturday for straight time also! What is the work environment and culture like at the company? It's good for the most part . Would suggest driver meetings once a month And to listen to are concerns. Pay is what keeps good drivers !! What is a typical day like for you at the company? Very sporadic , one day hurry hurry next day dead . Lots of broker loads here in the last yr. Plus chasing empties is the name of the game on alot of days
Good company, friendly people, no issues at all with the company, easy to communicate, good equipment, orientation was easy and fun. They also provided a decent lunch
I started with the company in 2017 and loved loved loved it. Management changed and I had personal issues that caused severe work problems...so it's difficult to say if management really sucked or if my issues caused my work assignments to change, but the assignments changed significantly, forcing me to look for work elsewhere. Still and all, I was very very happy there until my personal life interfered and I believe my work issues stemmed from my personal stuff. I would highly recommend the company, especially if you're a team driver.
Low pay low miles, equipment outdated very high miles, trailers are old and rusty. Can’t get anywhere near 2500 miles Management is fair , easy to talk to but Would not recommend sadly I can’t go anywhere else due to driving record
Great company overall. Driver-focused. Friendly staff and pretty good regional and over-the-road runs. Pay could be just a bit better, though not bad.
What is the best part of working at the company? Clocking out and collecting my small check at the end of the week What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Dealing with dispatchers that cant get their acts together What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Stressful and who cares about your family
Real good no complaints at all. Highly recommend. Wish it was more home time, it could be more dedicated accounts, more regional. If it was too expand I'm pretty sure they could have local.
Trash company Don't gamble your career here Or your life running there junk equipment Junk trucks junk trailers Idle 24 7 or batteries gonna leave you stranded Not gonna make money to eat on with this place Yeah they will seem nice Til you get to experience working there Your late anything whatever they will fire They run a school and hires every week They hand pick the crowd Good luck keeping the job anyway You deserve better Orientation at the terminal feels like a prison camp Don't have enough of there junk trailers to go around Yeah keep looking Even if you got a few incidents on your record Yeah keep looking you can do better
Recruiters stood by what they said . Home daily and good pay! Dispatchers were easy to get along with. Decent equipment, and when problems were reported, repairs were taken care of. I miss working here as the account I was working was not renewed. This was my favorite job I have ever had. I would recommend this company (and have) to friends. I would go back, if they ever get local work out of Indianapolis, In again!
What is the best part of working at the company? Great place to drive for. Always professional and the best people to work for. Pay is above average and experience is respected! If you do your best you get the best. Highly recommend! What is the most stressful part about working at the company? The stress is not the company. It's the sacrifices it takes to do the job of an OTR driver. However when the pay matches the sacrifice it worth it to many. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Above average! Dispatchers are very patient and understanding about the demands placed on drivers and will help any way they can to accommodate drivers needs. What is a typical day like for you at the company? Mostly long hours as that's what the job requires.
They really suck and dont care if you get home. They had me sitting more then driving and the pay really sucks for the experience I have and they lied on me saying I abandoned the truck.
I was able to delivery merchandise safely and on time. I had to pre plan my route, and timing of departure to make sure that I was able to make it to my appointments safely and on time.
They always short change drivers. They also lie about bonuses, and scheduled home time. It's definitely better Trucking companies out there that pay their drivers better than Summitt.
Wish I still lived up north great company to work for Definitely Care about there employee's and there home time also pay very well for there work not much regional opportunity for drivers who live down south
They don’t pay your worth you literally get paid about 600 a week to risk your life driving a tractor trailer and to me and anyone with a lick of sense will understand that’s crazy
They want otr drivers to run local with no miles and if you get asked to be switched to hourly they say no... the company is great as far as trucks and trailers and dispatch is awesome.. they are trying to stay mom and pop but they are rowing to fast
Had an incredible experience here. My Driver Manager was the best. Owner of the company is approachable and a former driver. Only problem I had was with the company being based in Indiana, I couldn’t get home as often as I needed to.
productive and enjoyible work place for all employees management is great sll the way to the top which his door is always open for anyone.great home time. hardest part of the job is not being home but they have
