CTI (central trucking inc.); Springfield, MO. I started in March of 09, soon after buying load locks ($40 each) they disappeared and I was told the company would buy new ones (when I was hired), had been replaced 2 months later with broken load locks and grease covered, to keep of course. I signed up for insurance on orientation day, but unfortunately after 3 months I did not qualify (for insurance) due to running only 7700 miles each month (I never asked for a day off). Further more they CUT MY PAY to. 27 cpm for not running the 9,000 miles a month to be considered full time (you will NEVER see 9,000). I sat for as many as 4 days at truck stops waiting on freight, (most of the time only 3) and rarely saw detention pay if any I think it was 25$ a day, but hardly ever saw that. I sat more than I ran, you will NEVER make any money with these folks, I went in the hole and every driver I talked to told me the same, and if you get 3 log book violations, they will fire you, you must also pay for your (pre-employment) physical and drug screen (90$). Every time I picked up a trailer, it had to go to the shop (3-4 hours) for some reason of another, and if they found a scratch in a truck, YOU PAY! Slip seat is company policy, and the trucks stink and are nasty, and when you do get home you may wait 3-5 days to get back out. I HIGHLY recommend all drivers to stay clear from this company and move on, I drive for PRIME now, and am completely satisfied.
