I love this company. Walsh is a great Family to work for. They take care of us drivers like we were their own. Very glad I made the switch and you can too because we are looking for some team players. Tomorrow is never too late. Give them a chance, will be a great decision.

Best company ever my husband has been for a about 4 years and they are very family oriented, my brother passed away and they were very lenient with my husband being able to attend the funeral in another state as well allowing him the time for medical issues for both himself and me. I couldnt ask for a better company for my husband to have joined on with thanks for being awesome Walsh's:)

If you want to be treated like a warm body who holds a steering wheel who makes a low wage & is treated like a meaningless number then this is the place for you.. I would say any of the higher rated reviews of this company are coming from Walsh family members.. it’s a complete joke that this company would get a higher rating than 2 stars

I have been with them for 19 yrs and have held many positions with them. Yes the core of the operation is based on family's. The driver that stayed the longest lasted 45 years! They may not be the perfect company. But they try to accommodate each drivers needs and situations.

Walsh offers decent pay for a local trucking company, though work hours can be somewhat inconsistent. Benefits are solid, though vacation accrual could be improved.

What’s the best part of working here? A friendly, relaxed atmosphere with predictable scheduling. What’s the most stressful aspect? As a Walsh truck driver, dealing with distracted drivers on the highway. How’s the company culture? Most coworkers and management are professional and helpful. What’s a typical workday like? Lots of driving with long hours, but reasonable for the trucking industry.

What’s the best part of working here? Honestly, I didn’t find anything particularly great about it. What’s the biggest challenge? Low pay—it ranks among the lowest in the trucking industry. How’s the workplace culture? Rather arrogant—upper management prioritizes their interests while drivers are treated as expendable. What’s a typical day like? Early morning start times (around 2 AM) followed by long shifts.

A good workplace. Very laid-back, with flexible scheduling most of the time. Overtime is available nearly year-round.

A discouraging work environment—communication, maintenance, dispatch, benefits, PTO—everything operates at the bare minimum level.

I truly enjoyed working at Walsh. Their equipment is newer, and the pay and benefits are strong. Health insurance, however, is costly. Overall, I’d highly recommend this company. I worked here for nearly a decade, leaving only due to relocating out of state.

CDL careers vary widely—I’ve had both great and terrible experiences, but Walsh stands out as one of the better ones. Management is strong and adaptable. Routes typically run 10-11 hours per day with overtime kicking in after 40 hours.

The team here is fantastic—home every night, straightforward routes, well-maintained trucks with on-site mechanics. Expect 10-12 hour shifts. The owners genuinely care and foster a family-like environment.

Equipment is unreliable, and when it fails, the driver bears the consequences. Management deceives authorities and allows irresponsible behavior, including substance use on the job.

Walsh Trucking / W-W Trucking / Action Carriers was a great place to work. Being a smaller company meant everyone knew you—including the owner. Drivers who operated independently and maintained their equipment thrived here. Basic maintenance like oil and brake adjustments was expected, while larger issues were handled by mechanics. Pay was fair, and staying on the road with a healthy truck ensured stable income. This company wasn’t ideal for drivers expecting a paycheck while sitting at home. Home time largely depended on location and how frequently loads passed near your area. If you left on time, returning home wasn’t a problem.

I wish I could give a negative rating—dispatchers are incompetent, leaving drivers stranded until the next shift arrives. Low pay, long hours.

The role involves hauling wood residuals. Home daily, but paid per load—meaning no overtime after 40 hours. Work-life balance is reasonable, and management is approachable. Equipment is in decent condition, though climbing to reach loading controls can be challenging.

An easy job, but the work environment can be frustrating. Dispatch frequently assigns your load to someone else just minutes before arrival, forcing hours-long wait times. Sharing a truck with difficult employees leads to unnecessary blame. Management tolerates harassment, and complaints result in being labeled as the problem.

Don’t work here if you value yourself—they will overwork you for minimal pay, showing little concern for employees or equipment.

I gained valuable trucking experience here. I was on the road for 40-day stretches, followed by pressure to return almost immediately. Pay for unloading groceries was poor, and grocery store warehouses didn’t treat drivers well. While I enjoyed transporting loads across the country, the low pay and lack of benefits made it unsustainable.

During my training period, I believed I was performing well—my trainer provided positive feedback throughout. However, I was abruptly told I wasn’t a good fit for the company without any explanation, even after I requested clarification.
