Default Priority-Chesterton In. Do they suck?

My hubby just switched from Werner Enterprises, Omaha NE, to Priority (Chesterton In.). We seriously thought this was going to be a good switch. Werner was the WORST job ever!!! Never ever ever consider working for them. I rode with my hubby with Werner for a little over a year, and I know for a fact that they DO NOT care about their drivers. But thats not what I am asking...

Priority. I've read a few things on here about the company. 2 actually. And they were both kinda bad. Does anyone have anything good to say about them? Or, are we totally screwed? I don't want him to have to switch companies again. Money is tight as it is. But if he is just gonna get the run around from Priority, I would rather know sooner than later.

BTW, he is on their mid-west region, if that means anything.

Thanks in advance!!!!
Heather

Well Heather the time to research a company is before signing on with them. Know what I mean?

With that said you have to keep in mind is that what is one person's hell is another person's heaven.

I know a couple of people who drive for them and they have not had any major complaints.

How well it works out for your husband is really going to depend on 2 things (like at most trucking companies).

1. What type of person he winds up with as a dispatcher
2. How well he can develop a good working relationship with his dispatcher, which boils down to communication, communication, communication.
