Waccamaw Transport

First, let me say this; the drivers, whose job creates every single other position in the company possible, are very talented and do their jobs to the very best of their ability. “Management” is a complete and utter failure. Not a single person has a lick of common sense or decency. They lie, talk negative behind others backs, and share information about other employees that managers are supposed to keep confidential. If you work night dispatch, the pay is great. However, if a day position opens up, it’s a lateral move. You do not get paid more to do ten times more work, which is absolutely ridiculous. If it wasn’t for the drivers keeping the company afloat and balanced, Waccamaw would have zero customers.

They will hire with no fuel hauling experience, but they flat out disregard any other driving history. They will micromanage you to death. Management kills with kindness, i always felt very small and dehumanized after speaking to them. Meetings are on your days off, frequent, on very short notice, and without compensation. It's strongly insinuated that these meeting are required to continue your employment; again, without compensation, but they are careful not to document such insinuations. Pay is fair WHEN LOADS ARE AVAILABLE, but dispatch is phenomenal when this happens.

They expect working more than 12 hours a day and pay $120 day after taxes it will be $90 . We actually working by load but when u dived what u make per day u find working $10 per hours . Plus poor management they thinking u can do everything thing and office people sit in office dosent do nothing. Health insurance very expensive  I can’t pay for this I’m not make any money in this company ( STAY AWAY).
They  told me pay for my Twic card and will purchase me but this not happened I’m not see this money in my check plus u have to watch ur check every week have
Short ( stay away )

They will work you 14 hours a night, and one 16 hour night per week. During the winter they call and tell you to stay home, and they have a rotating schedule, you’re off Saturday Sunday, or Thursday, and Monday. On weeks they told me To stay home one or two nights, with the rotating schedule and pay period it comes out to a 6 and 4 day, on the 4 day, after taxes and everything id be lucky to bring home 300.

Been with the company 6 months so far there still is nothing to complain about really besides lack of communication with slip seat partners for some drivers but besides that I can actually have a life outside of work and they work with you if you need a day off. The pay is good on day side but night shift has the better pay and more relaxed part of the job. I'd definitely recommend working here. 

Good place to work.  Dispatch in particular is difficult to work, especially if you have a family or need to take time off.  Management needs to tighten up on their communication skills, especially with regard to employee job performance.  Failure to follow proper disciplinary rules in place and mistruths about conversations that took place, are not optimum business practices.

The was always an attempt to make sure the pay was as equitable as possible between the drivers.  The communication from the corporate office to the drivers was excellent. I still talk to a number of people from Waccamaw and cherish their friendship.to this day. I would probably still be with this company if it was for having to work weekends.

Dispatch schedule is decent with plenty of time off. You're largely left alone to do you job unless the salesman is trying to work something in, sometimes helpful. Upper management might as well be non existent, although to hear them tell it they do great things every day. 

Pay was based on the tip and that would change. Never sure of what pay would be. I'm retired so I was looking for something with less hours. Work is not hard, just need to pay close attention to what you're doing. Overall management was good and fellow employees were a great help. Always there if you had a question, management was also.

The drivers are treated fairly and work independent of supervision while on the road. Dispatchers were good to work with. They keep an relatively new fleet, and the trailers were in good condition with a few exceptions. The maintenance shop was quick to address repairs as needed.
