Let's start with the interview... It's a joke.  They're so happy to have another willing body fill an empty seat, that they have no problem "fluffing" their talking points.  The interview and the first few weeks of employment are really the only times that you'll be spoken to with any respect.  Next, don't expect to have any amount of a personal life.  They do express early on that you'll be working a minimum of 50 hours weekly, and as much as 70.  Hours like this normally aren't a problem.  However, do not expect to get out early for ANY personal reasons or needs.  If you need to get anything done during weekday business hours, expect to work overnight shift for that whole week, so that you're too tired or busy with your family, to get anything productive done.  If you need a day off be prepared to receive lots of bad attitude from the Ops Manager.  Even if you give sufficient notice ahead of time.

The pay for a driver is $19 / hour,  which isn't terrible.  It's about as good as you'll get for a local commercial driver in this area.  As long as you're not in terrible debt, the pay is pretty decent, especially for the hours you'll work.  It's pretty much the best part about working at Heritage.  The other drivers are friendly and quick to help you out if you ask for it.  All of the drivers and mechanics seem to get along well.  Once you accept the job offer,  one of the things you're handed is a piece of paper listing a bunch of tools and supplies that you need to supply yourself.  Besides a truck to drive, the only things you are provided is your hard hat, safety vest, safety glasses and a tool bag.  If it's an essential item necessary to the basic functions of driving a dump truck, you must provide it yourself.  This also includes a CB radio for the truck.  The rigs don't come with them pre-installed.  So in order to communicate with scale houses, loaders, job site crews or other drivers, you gotta spend a few hundred bucks to have this feature. And it's a must have item.

Finally, the last things I have to speak of is that they only give you 20 minutes a day to stop and take a break. The trucks are GPS tracked and have a dashcam that also faces the driver.  They literally monitor your every move throughout the day, and they are not shy about sending you a call or text WITH photo evidence, if you're doing something they don't like.

The offered benefits package is also unaffordable and impractical.  All of this being said, it's the easiest truck driving job I've ever had.

Work-life balance
Work-life balance at Heritage Hauling Inc is fair and decent.

Pay & benefits
My pay and benefits at Heritage Hauling Inc were really good.

Job security and advancement
In terms of job security at Heritage Hauling Inc, I think most were job scared, since the turn over rate is high and drivers are responsible for any regulations that weren't followed but asked of them to perform.

Management
In general, managers at Heritage Hauling Inc ok. The owner has good business sense and knows how to keep his employees working. New Dispatchers are needed.

Culture
Collaboration with my colleagues at Heritage Hauling Inc was great. Still talk to some co workers and consider Heritage my home.

They think you should work 24/7…..nights and weekends….they don’t expect you to have a life outside of work….they dispatchers have a don’t care attitude…all you are is a number to them…the slightest mishap and they will fire you…getting time off to take care of personal stuff is  met with attitude….long hours so you can’t take care of personal stuff during normal business hours….not the place to work if you want to see your family or have a life outside of work….

I learned that you can’t trust the suoervisor. They will tell you one thing and do a complete opposite. If you’re ever in an accident, turn it into the DMV because they won’t out of fear of high insurance rates or their insurance company dropping them but they will tell your next potential job even after giving a promise not to mentioned it because they want to keep it under cover

Stay away,poor management .The two supervisors talk down to you without giving you a chance to explain.Look around extremely high turn over rate.You have no H.R. representatives to voice your concern.Average person last 6 months.Go to the safety meetings once a month and you will see all new faces.Good luck.

What is the best part of working at the company?
There is none.
The whole company is a JOKE.Management is USELESS,Dispatchers are even more useless.You are nothing but a truck number to them

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Getting talked down to by dispatchers for asking a simple question
