$Current Employee - May 9, 2021
Pros
Great Equipment, great mechanics, good routes, and great facilities. You personally know your supervisors, the President and supervisors will make the time and take the effort to meet with the drivers around the shops and talk about issues or just shoot the breeze for a while. The drivers can call and talk to pretty much anyone all the way up to the President about any concerns. The fleet is now all Kenworth T-680s.
Cons
The APUs are old and unreliable. However, if the truck is having APU issues, they don’t mind the drivers idling the truck.

Big G is a great otr company. Both my wife and I worked there for several years. If you live in TN they will get you home every single weekend, unless you choose to stay out longer. I highly recommend them.

I have been driving for 22 years and for a lot, I mean a lot of companies.....I have only found 3 that were decent, Wright Transportation, Mobile, Al., Tyson Foods, and my current employer Big G Express. I have posted positive reviews on here before about past compaines, but then something happens,i.e. miles drop, big management changes, or they go bankrupt. Now I digress back to Big G. I started here in March.I applied here 5 years ago and the pay was low and the insurance was horrible, so I passed. 3 years ago the owners sold the company to the employees, and things changed, driver pay increased (3 weeks ago they gave us a .04 cpm across the board pay raise),we got more extra pay items, and the insurance is awesome. You get insurance from DAY ONE if you so choose. The ESOP plan puts FREE MONEY INTO YOUR RETIREMENT! yes I said free!!!!.Basically the more money the company as a whole makes you make more, because after all you are an employee owner. Here are a few of my observations thus far:
