Reagent Chemical & Research Inc

Good company to work for and good benefits the only thing is that they offer a Warranty which is good but You can tell them you are sick or feel bad because they take it away and on the other hand you don’t have nobody to listen to you . There’s a manager a very good person but he has no authority in dispatch.   Reason of leaving there wasn’t enough jobs too many drivers and I think Reagent convenience is to pay drivers a Warranty so they can manage Drivers every time they want.  They don take care of Good Drivers and hire people with NO experience  and blame good drivers for others faults.

What is the best part of working at the company?
It was local and the pay was good.  They provide uniforms and have them clean for you.  The 401 k was good 👍

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
It was a fast paced job at times and could get very stressful when running badly.  Sometimes people were very hard to get along with you had to many people that weren't team members who made the job difficult.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment was hot and cold, there was a lot of backstabbing and gossip.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
The day most of the time depending on how it was running

I worked for Reagent in Louisville,Ky. for 15.75 yrs. I made good money, but family/home time suffered greatly. For 12 years, it was a great job. When they switched to ELD's, it went down hill, in terms of dispatching loads to drivers. ELD's changes how a driver can work, dispatch, however, changed nothing! Apparently they do not care about drivers, and they dont care that they are losing drivers, because of it.  BUT,  if you dont mind sleeping in a truck for free, an hour from home terminal, for no reason except, poor dispatching obligations, its a great job! You can/will be off 4 days a month...thats the only kind of schedule you will have!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Being able to work remotely 85% of the time

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Very fast paced and if you lose internet connection you're screwed.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Everyone is helpful and friendly but the training process could be structured much better

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
It's a long day 12 hour shift fast faced, lots of phone, be ready for changes without any notice

Easy work. Best pay and benefits. Dispatchers are the best. Company loves its drivers. Just don't upset a customer. Do your job and its a great place to be.. Darn near everything is supplied to you to do your job. 
Wear ALL safety related equipment. There are some sites you go to that its not very important. BUT, at FRAC sites, you better be on top of it.. Its not hard work. Just dont sit in the truck when off loading.

The Best Trucking /Chemical Company I've ever worked for in my trucking career. Pays medical benefits for your whole family, every year the company puts a percentage of your yearly salary into your 401k all at once. So just say you made 90k, if the company puts 9% percent in for that year, then you would get $9,000 in your 401k all at once for that year plus you have long term and short term disability and medical, vision, and dental for you and your family. 

Brand New Automatic Trucks, with all equipment you need to cover the job,
 They give you all PPE  to protect yourself and others ,
For me the hardest part is that most of time when you call dispatch, they say there's no loads available and two hours later they call you to go back to yard to cover it, and its hard because I live 50 miles from there and if you refuse it , you'll  lose benefits that they offer to you.  


I have have absolutely nothing bad to say about my company the pay is pretty good if not great the bonuses are awesome the equipment is new and bosses are remote and easy to work with. I absolutely love my job and my employer I've been here very long time and they treat me like family they always take care of me I couldn't ask for anything better my managers are very understanding all they expect is that you do your job and do it correctly no shortcuts and life is good

A typical day at work is enjoyed with communication with the Terminal Manager and the HCL drivers which deliver product to the customers.  Very much a "Team" effort with all in volved from the terminal manager to the drivers to the customer interaction.  My customers are the best!
My Terminal Managers and Drivers in all locations I work in are awesome to work with to get the job done to satisfy the customers.

My typical day would consist of collecting and entering employee hours and preparing payroll, billing out to many different companies according to the bills of lading that are sent on a daily basis. Filing and other duties as needed.
Most enjoyable part of my job was getting to enteract with the guys whom I handled their payroll, and being to answer their questions and get their checks correct.
