What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Supportive communication & Feedback. Team Building within each dept & sub-dept at the terminal level
Sanity? Comprehencion of their job? Ride alongs where never done so the team had no clue what the drivers where dealing with and made ot very clear they had no interest in learning. The demanded ready times be set with no regard for traffic, gaslight/lied to drivers, and set calvinball standards
Be legal!! Dont discriminate. Pay ay markter not 25% below
Communication, professionalism, to much favoritism.
Taking care of the employees
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
We have no stock options
Health isurance is not very good and it is pretty expensive.
A change to a new account will better my needs
You will be told youll be promoted then they will outsource someone from a different account for the promotion after you invested yourself into the business
With this market prise we need increase
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Management needs to support team communication between departments.
My fellow drivers are fine but the office staff needs to start doing full turn ride alongs and understand the drivers know more then they do, particularly when they have only been their a couple years. Getting told what is safe by someone who has never driven a truck is a "no".
Work together and help each other and when you bring your tractor back keep it full of fuel or death don't leave it in a quarter of a tank and then the first thing when you get in it you got to find a truck stop to fill it up and to keep their inside of the truck clean I
Dispatchers need to actually focus on dispatching, and making an effort to keep the drivers moving, because that is how drivers get paid is by mile and by load
Coworkers were great but higher management unfairly promotes from didferent accounts
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Ride alongs need to be done. Drivers need to be listened too. Preplans need to be sent to the truck promptly not 6 hours after my loaded call. Performance standards need to be written down and signed by each driver, as well as posted visibly. And you need better metrics.
Stop forcing commutes and allow remote work, implement sick days and mental health days, give all employees PTO from day one, let employees off for Christmas Eve, Juneteenth, MLK Day and the day after Thanksgiving. Anything else is inconsistent with the company's stated values
Change the board and the executive team. Culture has to start at the top!
Its entirety horrivle asa conpany
Everything at chicago local needs to change
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
I woyld improve it by getting rid of the vp Rachel Christensen who is a horrible boss 89% of the drivers dont know her becsuse of her harsh denemor. She keaves her ship unattended to the directir & oms eho have no ckue on how to deal wirh employees.
Nothing but they need to learn how to be honest
Provide consistency in the process
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Well this is only on account im on cant speak for all of them but the supervisors for the account im on call me directly not always but daily because they dont want to deal with dispatch because they say it wont get done
There is no real incentive for drivers to stay with jb hunt once there because the pay isnt as good as it could be due to how drivers are ran, if they laid market rate, or justdid better driver management there would be higher incentive to deal with the negative workspace
Management and the pay rate is going down big time instead of going up
