Corporate is out of touch!

Pros

Go home every day.

Cons

Corporate continues to look for ways to control cost and the number one way is by taking money from drivers! It has a backwards way of paying drivers and impossible for you to know what you’re going to get paid. The system they have now will fail and they will eventually have a driver paid by the hour...I’m guessing around 18$ and a helper making maybe 10$! The people in corporate are living in a dream world if they think they will ever keep drivers!
