Current Western Express driver gives the real truth about company without any BS. (MUST LISTEN!!!)

I was planning on doing videos of my trucking journey out the gate , but lord knows it's been a journey, from starting with a different company and failing with them to adjusting to the road. But today, I had time. hope this answers y'all questions if not hop in the comments and ask away .

[@BoutMyPaper83]

i've been with Western for about the exact same amount of time and i agree with you 100%, i see so many negative reviews about the company, but i'm sure majority are dry van. i'm coming up on 6 months thinking about finding a company that offers hometime every weekend, but it's been a pretty smooth ride for me overall. My advice to all, Slow down sooner than you think you should (especially approaching curves) and give anyone in front of you more room than you think you should.

[@Jamargary]

Agreed..👌🏿

[@BawseLadyT]

It definitely is Dry Van. Flatbed get more loads. Dry Van be sitting 24/48 hrs for a new load. I secured a gig with 3 other companies just for being OTR with WE for 3 weeks.

[@Diogenes_43]

The company is what you make of it. I’m in dry van about 6 months in, I average 5 loads a week doing drop and hooks in the north east. Started looking at other companies and haven’t found one that’s offering more yet tbh. I will say I ate shit for the first 3 months and barely made anything. Then again, I didn’t know wtf I was doing. Now I do my thing and maybe talk to my DM once a week. I drive 11, sleep 10, drive 11, repeat. I hit 2-3000 miles a week solo.

[@Jamargary]

Good stuff 💯

[@BawseLadyT]

I just came off the road doing my 70 hr training (Dry Van) and my 1st trainer didn’t teach me anything & she did all the backing, docking etc. My 2nd trainer gave me a few shifting tips however, she only been with WE and had her license 6 months. These appointed trainers don’t have the experience to be training anyone. Unless you’ve had 2+ years under your class A you have no business being a trainer.

[@Jamargary]

I don't agree honestly because training is not meant to teach you every single scenario, it's more so to make sure you have the basics to be a safe driver, and understand the tablet etc. Everything else is something that comes over years of experience from what I'm told by many tenured drivers. They would be training people forever if they waited for everyone to become perfect at backing or whatever other skill needs to be learned.

[@mr_burky]

​@@JamargaryHere's a word of advice "never stop learning". I've been in the industry for the last 10yrs, a lot has changed since then. I'm 5yrs owner op, paid for truck contracting for Marten Transport. I've been with Marten 7yrs, I've fired plenty of managers. Even as a owner op I'm still learning. Don't be afraid to ask for help from us experienced drivers, most of us will help you. On another note "tailgating kills", please don't tailgate, space is your friend out here

[@heem9082]

My trainer was the same way, did all the backing. A day before my test out he showed me a technique to pass the “backing test”. Got out on my own and pretty much relied on my CDL school training more than my “trainer”.

[@jerryjones4971]

They don't care about safety.

[@BawseLadyT]

@@Jamargary If you haven’t experienced a blowout or an accident just to name a few things then again, you have no business being a trainer just because you’ve been driving for six months does not qualify you to be a trainer. You have an experienced anything you’re still new.

[@MichaelDawkins-g3b]

I'm also a flatbed driver for Western this is about the realest video yet. Spitting straight truth. Most problems stems from the driver themselves 💯. I'm not going anywhere. This company has treated me Great 👍

Smart man and I appreciate it

[@aaronburns9538]

I did Western Express for a year 50 Cent per mile is what I topped out at West Coast. Averaged about 875 to nine hundred bucks off a check over 2000 miles was good. Found a small company after I did my year and I make double when I made their I'm averaging about 3000 miles a week and if they don't roll me I get detention pay if I'm sitting for over 2 hours I start getting paid hours. Getting your experience under your belt bro and you'll be making $0.75 a mile flatbed easy anywhere else

[@adventureswithshaggy]

[@Zeetrucking88]

No knock on you but. Every mega carrier should only allow you to be a trainer only after you have drove in all seasons. Because being a new trainer with a trainee in a blizzard in the winter is no joke bro.

[@dnice.757]

Facts

[@jeremyholt8671]

I thought the same thing. A few months experience and be training someone else, that’s crazy. It should be at least 3 or 4 years before you train, I think.

[@mr_burky]

It doesn't matter how many years experience a driver has you will always start at the bottom as a new hire. Work ethic and being reliable will get you to the top rather quickly. Time management and trip planning is a big one

[@ZULU25LF]

Is it four loads no matter how many miles you've done. And still make 1000.

[@ZULU25LF]

Because I don't know if you get paid for miles or how many loads.

[@Jamargary]

@ZULU25LF my bad bro didn't see your comment ,but yes I've had a breakdown week where my DM made sure I got four loads. Didn't leave Virginia and drove less than 1000 miles. T-calls and dropping your load for someone else to repower it counts as a load as well.

[@black-onion1776]

I worked for Western Express for a little over a year. Then went to Hornady where I make much more money. The best thing is to work for Western Express for a year then use that experience to find a job with a company that pays more or does prophet sharing.

[@JeremiahDouglas]

If you have to chain its to dangerous to drive

[@zachhopple4162]

Personally my experience with Western has been garbage. I did dry van and barely made anything. The most miles i ever done there was during my last week of working there. My DM was super nice and chill tho but every time i would call night shift they were rude and gave me an attitude. My first few weeks there i went thru 3 trucks bcuz of them being in bad condition and the mechanics there dont know how to work on trucks. Im glad you are having a better experience than i did bro

[@Jamargary]

Wow. Like I tell anyone, I suggest going flatbed, it's more work but more money and structure and you typically will not drive at night nor do any difficult backing. The only downside is the tarping load securement. Flatbed never runs out of work and rarely struggle to get home,

[@zachhopple4162]

@@Jamargary for sure. I just ain’t a flat bed kinda guy lol. I ended up going to Roehl and there reefer division. So far got 2 loads with 700+ miles and every time i call with questions they are super nice. Definitely a good company to go to. OTR is 2 weeks out and 3 home. They also have home daily…just incase you decide to try something new bro

I wouldn't do a lease program through a company because they can and will hold the outcome of money being made.

[@Jamargary]

Whats the problem?

[@stevenroberts3284]

OK, I'm kind of busy multitasking and not really paying too close attention to this informative video. But you're telling me that Western Express trainers after their truck payment after their fuel, and after their insurance are bringing home 3500 to $5000 a week. Is that what you said? OK, let's go on the low end and say 3500 a week. OK, that's $14000 a month. You're telling me that's $168000 net income for a trainer at Western Express. I'm calling bullshit right now. Another point I'd like to make is you in your own video just stated what is wrong with this industry right now. You've been driving for 3 or 4 months and you are on your way back to the terminal to become a trainer. Is that what you said? You've been running a flatbed truck for 3 or 4 months now, and you are going to take some poor rookie and you're going to be his trainer. No offense, dude, and this is nothing personal against you. But you have no idea what you're doing after 3 or 4 months as a flat bed driver. Pop quiz hotshot, you have A42 1000 pound. Roller steel on your flat bed suicide configuration. How many change do you need to be compliant as far as securing goes? Let's say you have a flatbed trailer with axles that at least one can be reposition. What's the max allowable weight for your tandems? What do you do if after you're loaded? You have to drive 50 miles to the nearest truck. Stop to get scaled out and you find out that you're now overweight on your tandems. Can you slide your tandems to adjust the weight and scale out? Legally, do you know how to slide your fifth wheel? Do you know how to do that with 42000 pounds on your deck? You're the guy that's now having to make those decisions and also instruct that new green horn. Asked how to rectify this situation. Again, this is nothing personal, but you don't have the knowledge or the experience to know how to deal with these situations. When I finish my work day I will sit down and watch the entire video, and I will be back to make some further comments but do it really, really? Just a cursory viewing of this video and you have not changed my mind about Western Express at all. It's run by bunch of idiots. If you think you're a real truck driver, you've got a long ways to go, buddy. And if you think at 3 or 4 months and experience that you're in a position to be able to instruct and teach someone else how to do this job properly, no chance, buddy. I've been in this industry for over 15 years. I've been pulling step deck for over 4 years. I learned something every day. Yes, I know enough to do the job legally properly and safely you don't. And I'm still just laughing my butt off at you. Claiming that trainers at Western Express make over a $160000. Net, not happening Bubba. I'm an owner-operator my current average pay per mile is $2.32 you do the math.

[@Jamargary]

Man what are you talking about lmao. You just wrote a whole paragraph not making any sense.

[@georgeklipola710]

Get away from Western Express asap

[@donaldmetellus1825]

Hope everyone don’t go to this company it’s all bullish the company suck
