Pros

Excellent pay. You are paid for the entire time you are at work. 5 day schedule with 2 days off, every week. Benefits are very good as well. This is a professional job and you are treated with respect. 2 weeks paid vacation a year. I am on Dayshift after only 2 years on nights. 3 AM START TIME, for those early bird go-getters.

Cons

Pilot and Flying J truck stops are open year round. Even on holidays, so if are scheduled to work on a holiday, you are expected to run your loads. You can request time off though; seniority based. Sometimes it can be a tight, fast paced delivery schedule in order to get the truck back on time. You slip seat with the night shift driver or vice versa, so don’t want them to start their shift late. 12 hour shifts are the reason why this job is excellent pay, so you can’t complain.

Pros

Pay is decent for Knoxville Benefits are good Coworkers are the only thing holding this place together

Cons

The culture has taken a nosedive. The new CFO sets the tone, and that tone is basically “I don’t care.” That attitude trickles down through leadership and it shows in every decision being made. The return‑to‑office mandate is a perfect example. It’s not about productivity — it’s about control. People with long commutes are burning hours of their lives just to sit in the office on Zoom calls they used to take from home. Morale is the lowest it has ever been. Entire teams have been gutted because people are quitting faster than they can be replaced. The workload dumped on whoever stays is unsustainable. Communication from leadership is cold, dismissive, and out of touch. Feedback goes nowhere. Concerns are brushed off. Decisions are made with zero regard for how they impact employees. Constant reorganizations create chaos. Roles change overnight, expectations shift constantly, and employees are expected to absorb more and more with no support. The company used to feel people‑focused. Now it feels like a machine that’s grinding down the very people who keep it running.
