TransAm Trucking

I'm a company driver. TransAm gave me a chance fresh out of CDL-A school, and with a criminal record. They've been pretty good to me, and they pay me well. I am grateful for the opportunity. Bubba and Jay, the guy's who are out there training TransAm driver's, are the best. Those two taught me a lot, and taught me well. Here's a picture of my 2022 Kenworth T680 that TransAm trusted me with straight out of training. At least $200,000 worth of equipment right there. Thank you TransAm.

I worked at this company and by far is the worst company I ever worked for and I'm a seasoned truck driver. The only check I got was the orientation check I stayed 1 month and I got the H--l out of there please find somewhere else to go you can do better I left and I'm with a company where I make 1,800 easy every week and that's driving company. I beg you leave this company or don't go there I'm not lying.

TransAm is not a bad place to work. I have been here for almost a year now. I started out on the otr account. It didn't pay very well. Now I am on the coyote account making great money. Trans am gave me an opportunity right out of school and I have a criminal record. If you come into this company with a positive attitude and you are willing to do the work they will take care of you. All my DMs call me by my first name and treat me very well. Overall, I have enjoyed my time here at trans am. It's a great place to gain some experience. I love my job here.

Thieves. My husband quit. The driver managers don't tell you when your load is a guaranteed pay. They're (Fisher, Jessica, ) pocketing the money. They'll eventually get caught. Drivers make sure you get your guranteed pay. Find another company to drive for. There are a lot out there they appreciate their drivers and don't still money.

Would look for other options first. This company does not value your life or your time one bit, they just want to keep you working. It's good for the experience you receive but my compliments stop there.

So I worked at TransAm trucking and I worked for 2 weeks my second check was short because they said I got a cash advance and I DID NOT. I have all my recipes to show I didn’t and the charged me for the hotel and to take my bags on the plane. Out of all the people in my organization class I was the only one that got charged for that. The driver managers where very very nice people and the trainers also. But the pay sucks and they are very unorganized

One of the worst companies to work for and very low pay. Stayed on the roads for months at a time and was told I could only go home 3-4 days. I quit and they begged me to stay lmfao

I would work for Trans Am family again. As with any trucking company, Trans Am has its pros and cons but strives very hard to ensure their drivers success. Truck driving is unpredictable and everchanging and running a small business in today's complex and always changing rules and regulations can be difficult almost impossible without a great team of employees and support behind you. Trans Am is definitely one of those teams that has the experience and knowledge and desire to make you the next trucking success story and the CEO of your safety service provider company

They are going to hire you no questions asked and let you get your feet wet in a trucking industry. Pay is as adequate as you can get at most mega carrier companies with zero to no experience.

Only come here if you’re in dying need of a job. Like every other company they have their good and bad but…yea get your 3 mos of experience and go to Varient/US Xpress.

Depends on account you work. they start otr drivers at .32cpm but it’s really .19cpm. You’ll average around 1500 miles so your checks will be less than $500

Management is terrible. They’ll have you paying for service they didn’t complete the first time. You’ll sit weather your IC or Company (I’ve received 2 different payments for layover pay) one layover I didn’t get paid at all.

Okay, so the company for the most part is not bad for getting your experience. I have no complaints on that part. Basically, I took a chance at the Lease option. New Truck was nice. The only problem was I wasn't getting enough miles to cover the fuel cost. I would have stayed on the lease but I have a family and I need to be able to make money not owe it. I wouldn't mind being a company driver on a dedicated lane, I asked waiting for a response. The bottom line is, that TransAm will give you a chance it's up to you. Go, company driver, and get the experience before doing IC.

I quit because dispatch are rude and don’t value the drivers so I took my great skills and work ethic somewhere where’s it’s appreciated I would still be there if they had better management

This is by far the absolute worst company that I have ever worked for. Everyone from the administration are completely incompetent in their job. Don’t waste your time. If you’re thinking that you’re going to make any money you are sadly mistaken. They don’t care at all about their drivers. Everything, and I mean everything is for the company and not the driver. Without the driver there would be no company. These people have forgotten that. You will absolutely do more sitting than you will running. Run as fast as you can away from this company.

If you get fired they will leave stranded you will have to find your own ride home, they didn’t have no trainers with us on the road when I started a week ago you are by yourself. So if hit something by accident once they will fire you. They will also play with your money sideways so be careful on that.

If you in a situation where you NEED a trucking job come here. Make sure you keep up with ALL of your paper work, receipts included. They deduct lumpers, load locks, trailer washouts out of your pay then ask you to upload a copy to reimburse you. If you don’t, you’ll lose out on whatever it costed you. Decent miles if you don’t go home about 2100-2800 jus depends. Pay scale is .50 for 1 yr experience so if you have less well.. but like I said really a 2nd chance company stay positive you can save some coins

This is a starter company so pay is not great. It is mostly used to get your experience and then move on. You’re not important to them as a driver because so many new drivers are hired every week.

I worked for them in 2008 and I must say it was a pretty good starter company for new drivers at the time the owner was very Personable and professional had a few problems down the line waiting for loads but overall it was a great start to truck driving

Trying to get my road experience that’s it! Here for a good time not a long time! I start this month and I’m curious to see how this training is about to go.

What is the best part of working at the company? There was a best part? Dispatch was horrible, getting good miles was rare, overall it was just a horrible place to work for. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Getting home. You'd put in for certain days and instead of sending you in that direction, they'd suddenly give you a load that took you the opposite direction. Happened every time I scheduled home time. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Toxic and very pressuring. They clearly didn't care about their drivers What is a typical day like for you at the company? Getting on the road at weird hours.

What is the best part of working at the company? Awesome company. You can excel in your career if you want and they help you get to the next level of trucking by offering independent contract. Which is good for those looking to start there own trucking business What is the most stressful part about working at the company? In trucking every company will have there flaws. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Here at Trans Am even though it’s a mega carrier they treat you with the upmost respect and address you by name. Not an number What is a typical day like for you at the company? Whatever you make it. It’s all on how you want to drive the miles are there for you

They not that bad u just got to want it every job have there up and down just take the good with the bad.
