Interviewed with them for a recruiter position. Had a horrible interview experience with them. The hiring manager missed our first phone interview and inconvienced me to call her back later. I was required to take three hours of online assessments only to find out I was a back-up candidate. I did find out while interviewing they don't pay drivers anywhere near $70,000 as advertised. They pay less than most other companies and is why they have a hard time keeping drivers. Expect drivers to make around $50,000 a year.
