System Transport

Been with the company doing OTR awhile now and happy I chose to come here over other options. They keep you running. They get you home on time. Their trucks are well kept. I’ve never been broken down. Dispatchers are friendly and willing to help. And their pay is great for someone new to the industry and even people with experience. I averaged 3-3400 miles a week when I first started. I have since become a trainer which I just admit is a whole different ball game but it’s a challenge that is rewarding. Now that I’ve seen the training program from both sides, you can see that they know what their doing in regards to developing safe and efficient drivers. Also a few other perks: no front facing camera, rarely see north east, company yards all over the US with showers and lounges, generous bonuses, open door policy with every member of the company, reefer and tanker options if flatbed ain’t for you(sister companies), and 24/7 dispatch and road service. I probably missed a few but overall best bang for your buck. If you are safe, a hard runner, and practice communication, you will not only grow professionally but financially $.

Good company, stay away from west coast regional fleet. Driver managers don't care about the drivers, just their load numbers. OTR is the best fleet. They keep you running and treat you like a person.

I have been here for 6 months, and you can tell a lot about a company in 3 months, and I have to say, working in the west coast glass division (Fresno), I'm thoroughly enjoying it. My managers are extremely understanding, accommodating, and on top of that, very friendly and have an open door policy. I'm running 2800-3400 miles a week, doing a 34-45 hr weekend, making good money, the equipment is really good with very little issues, and the trucks! I joined because of the trucks, and I got to say, I'm really happy with their set up. Overall, I can see myself working here for 20 years, and the best part, I actually lost 40lbs in 5 months, then started gaining some muscle on top of that from all the tarps I'm rolling and climbing up and down the trailers. If you show that you are a runner, and you can operate safely, and have proper communication, you will make a lot of money. I can honestly say, for a starter company as everyone has been telling me, they really do care about safety and go above and beyond DOT regulations.

System transport is a good company. I decided to go there after a month of research I decide to go there. There might be a few bad reviews on them but my personal experience is good so far. First they fly you to Spokane Washington for a weeks oriention which a lot of companies don’t do that. Most companies do a 1 or 3 days oriention. The trainers care and Managment care about their drivers. I’ve been here for a week not once did I hear something negative about the company. I have to go to the doctors back home and they are flying me back to make that appointment. Systems works with you. So my advice to new drivers go with system I don’t think you would be disappointed with them.

I worked at System Transport for 13 years as a company driver and Owner Operator. Everyone has a gripe about their company, but system was always up front with me about everything! Maybe some day I will get back in a truck!!

My husband has been driving for them since 2016 and it's a pretty good company. Keep their word better then others he has hauled for. Dispatch is fair.

I don’t recommend working here. They don’t care about the drivers or the equipment. I just started like a month ago and I’m already looking elsewhere. After orientation is over and you get your truck. Get ready to have some fun!

I’ve always had a positive experience here when picking up freight as an outside carrier. Getting loads transferred from their trailer to mine is a breeze and the guys who work there are some of the nicest I’ve met. It’s great coming to a place who gives the same respect you give. I can’t speak for working here, but as an outside carrier I get treated very well and it is much appreciated.

Smooth onboarding process and great training. I felt taken care of during the whole process. They know what they are doing. I felt really well prepared for going solo. The real problem was the pay just wasn't proportional to the amount of work and responsibility. That was 2018/2019 and I hear they are doing better now. I would consider going back, but to a different division. The heavy-haul tarps are just too heavy for me.

While in training you work 14 hrs a day for $600/week or less. I hope this isn't I precursor if what to expect after training. Besides the low trainee pay, System Transport does seem to treat their drivers well.

I have been driving for system for over 5 years. The company has changed quite a bit in that time. At first is was a good safety oriented and driver focused company that had standards, but that has fallen by the way side. Pay is ok and you can make decent money if you run hard, but the truck are slow and there is no sign of that changing anytime soon.

Job provides. travel over the western us, many cities and states to be in. Job is not a steady pay and first time truckers will usually make 400 to 800$, but drive and compete with other drivers for loads so pay is not that high. Plus qual comm electronic logs do not provide flexibility with your time, time will be very restricted using the quail comm system. I hate it. Smaller companies have log books that are more flexible with your time.

I have nothing bad to say about this company, the miles are there and the work is there you just have to be willing to hustle for that pay check, the equipment is new, the people are good, every company has its ups and downs but at the end of the day they handled all my needs as a company driver, either you swim or you drown this company will not hold your hand but the help is there if and when you need it, you have to be committed to your position in this company, at the end of the day yes you are just a number but sometimes its better that way, the drivers around you are vary helpful and will guide you just dont expect someone to do your job for you, everyones time is valuable ,time is money and with the right commitment you will get better day by day, you will know if this line of work is for you or not within the first 3 months.

great pay, solid kw trucks, fair treatment, home time (3 days x 3 weeks), lots of loads, empty and down pay, otr tarps maybe 3x a week, micro manage however dispatch may vary, won’t lose your job on first or fifth mistake, honestly no complaints

What is the best part of working at the company? Newer trucks, great maintenance. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? split shifts - they don't understand the 14 hr rule What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Your only a number to them not a human. What is a typical day like for you at the company? work 4-5 hrs then take a nap then del. your load in the middle of the night.

Good Company To Start With Flatbed. The Training Program Is Pretty Decent, They Make Sure You Know What You’re Doing Before You Continue On. Pay Isn’t Too Bad.

It was my first trucking job and I worked there for 5 months, OTR. You definitely won't make what is advertised for pay. During that time, I averaged $1100/mo. Granted the first 5-6 weeks is training pay at $700/wk. I had 1 week where I made $1500. Training pretty much depends on the person you are training with otherwise you just kind of have to learn on your own. There are some resources like training guides for some types of securements and you can call in to get help but its usually not sufficient and you have to to figure out the best way to secure the freight. The Dm's were cool for the most part and got me home when I requested but I would always tell them a month in advance when I wanted to go back. I was on a 6 week out/5 day home cycle and they were pretty open about letting people choose how they wanted to run , talking to other drivers. Overall, I would recommend this company to get your feet wet in flatbed trucking.

Good job . Some companies pay more . Good communication! Good place for beginners. Good equipment, they pay well for orientation. Be prepared for working in harsh weather conditions!

Fairley new driver here. I had some good runs and awesome dispatch to get me going. But I was let go after 4 days while I was waiting for some health results. Safety is constantly yelling at employees for everything, big and small. I am looking for a company that I can learn from. Not rack up points because I am a new driver trying to gain experience. Beware.

Good company so far just starting out so I can’t really say too much right now but I will leave and up to date review soon after I have some experience and time OTR

Suck stay away this company are liars from day one they lied to every person in orientation about sign on bonus they don't give you a bonus at all. And work life balance is all lies

Decent place to work, lots of options for routes, most of their yards have showers, truck services,and drivers lounges. New kenworth t680s, all auto transmissions.

6 months in, I’ve learned the pros & cons. The only thing that bothers me is their governed trucks at 63-65. Upsets me I can’t come close to the speed limit! Dangerous actually.

As a newer driver they put me with a trainer until they were comfortable with me. As a trainer now I get to pass along what I have learned. Time magement is crucial.

Plenty of work and support. Great shop and great people. Not a fan of drive cams but that is the way of the industry. I hope the company keeps growing because that means more jobs.
