Hirschbach, Dubuque IA

Dani was a great help to me. From the moment I spoke with her, she walked me through the process and prepared me for everything I needed to do. By the time I showed up for orientation, I had my drug test done and had all my paperwork done online. ; giving me an opportunity to start driving within 48 hours

Best Transportation Company I have worked for. Moved away was the only teason that I left. Dedicated, Monmouth, Illinois. Great people & customers!

Best company to work for, iv been for 6 years now, and people inside is like more than family everybody, they will call you by name only, and not like some prison number that you get in other companies, I will try and get retire in this company, and all these negative comments that are posted on here, well oh well, you either cus at each other and or didn't want to drive loads, and they let you to quit on your own, stop crying and grow up

My recruiter Dani was very helpful
throughout the entire process making the transition very smooth and the onboarding team was excellent.

Recruiting, safety, and my driver manager have been awsome and very supportive in my over three years with this company, would recommend this career. Now there are issues to somethings, maybe in another year I will have them trained

Hirschbach is a very good company. The trucks are very well equipped with high speed internet/wifi, SiriusXM, large fridge, 24" mounted flat screen tv and APU. They also offer many different positions from local, dedicated, and OTR. Dani was my recruiter and i was very pleased with the on-boarding. She was able to answer all my questions. I'd recommend Hirschbach and Dani if you're looking to start, or make a move, in your trucking career.

7 out of 10 would be my rating of the company. The recruiting staff is pretty good very reliable, not just during hiring but as you move on as well. Dispatch was shaky at first, after getting to know each other and familiarize James became my go to guy. Hometime is as asked for properly, trucks set up with TV an wifi, not bad routes an accounts. Good company for a settle individual that does not require much income from the lease, but if your young an hungry might not be the best move for you. Income could be better but amazing fuel prices.

So far have been here a little over a week, the jury is still out.they do not provide microwaves, and are truck was still dirty when we received it.

So I will finally leave a review 5 plus years later. Raw and Uncut. When I first got here my dm was horrible but that one phone call with a dm to speak with a supervisor changed everything. That dm and I clicked when she heard my concerns (switched to her board after a month). Well 5 plus years later she is still my dm. I earned her respect, planners respect, fleet managers respect because when I said I was going to be on time or I could rescue that load or drive over night and not stop except for my 30 minute break, I did it. If you don’t run you won’t make money. Now I own my 2020 truck that I leased. I was able to build my credit and bring the price down to take out a business loan and build my business credit. I have a house, I take care of my little family, 2 Mercedes Amg’s ALL BECAUSE I WORKED HARD WHEN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY. I’m still here apart of the very select few of 11 o/o’s even when they wasn’t trying to bring people on because my track record earned it for me. If you don’t run DONT DO LEASE, if you don’t have a end goal DONT DO LEASE, if you can’t manage time DONT DO LEASE, if you can’t push through the ups and downs DONT DO LEASE, you will put yourself in a bad spot. I’m here and still pushing with my own authority and all. It’s been a ride but I’m 1 step closer to really living a dream, so I won’t stop now. I hope this helps anybody on the fence whether it steers you towards the company or away from lease. There is money to be made. You just have to want it bad enough. Added some pics so you can see for yourself, that I’m not talking just to talk. Hirschbach put me in a position to win and I ran with it. In order to have something you never had, you have to do things you never done. Safe travels

Great owners just the jbs side didn't care that you had issues going on at home that makes u lose focus and saying I wasn't available when they needed me which is a complete lie I was out Sunday through Friday on the jbs account did relays whenever they asked and got told I didn't need a relay when I asked and my productivity was because of my mom's health and uncle having a aneurysm all at the same time and I communicated it with Scott on the jbs side alot he cared more about loads then the driver

Good company overall.
Other than that.
I run.
I make above average pay in industry.
I can go home when I ask.
I have a good truck.
Awesome D. M.
If Unload and load times worked quicker.
I’d make more.
But that’s not on company!
Oh…and if Biden/Harris weren’t in office and economy wasn’t how it is right now.
Still above average.

After several weeks of talking. Was denied employment.driving record clean. 2 speeding tickets.been in the transportation industry of driving since 1975.no accidents.or incidents.but do to a felony charge that is 20 yrs old.n have no obligation to authority's.no paper.probation.registration.nothing.
I was denied. I am in perfect health too.
I am really over qualified.but don't meet thier criteria. N the industry needs good drivers. REALLY.

My brief time with Hirschbach. That first line basically says it all. They feature top line trucks, for a reason, because their governing staff (Dispatch) isn’t TopLine.

Generally speaking OTR Drivers, License option drivers; Are 24hour employees. Driver Managers, Fleet Managers, Load Brokers, and afterhours are a necessary EVIL.

However, OUR licenses are OUR Own. Assignment of LATE Loads isn’t the fault of the driver. Though, their EVIL lawlessness, is their own (Brokers) ; to suggest, any late load is the fault of the driver and then when you request a different driver manager… they will deny you one.

If the caucus of Truck Operators actually tried to get along. The EVIL lawlessness, wouldn’t have a career. Hirschbach Employs a woman that works for dispatch, that in our group meeting she quoted wrong dot guidelines, yet, the safety staff looks the other way.

Postscript, In the privacy of my license truck or any truck assigned to me. I will talk my smack. I do not give permission to anyone recording me. So driver manager Smilie or whatever her name is, was always deriving an argument, from day #1. Though, I didn’t argue with her directly and then she gives me her cell number and acts like she is a different driver. Straight Bipolar.

If you can choose any other company … Do.
+1 for the Truck.
+1 for Orientation.
+1 for Everyone that gives a shyt.
-1 for Driver Manager
-1 for not assigning a different driver manager.

But since this company is overtly racist they get 1 … sit me in a conference room, with a group of Italian Caucasian people … Have but two dark skin people walking around. As to suggest what? !

I absolutely love driving for this company it has been one of the best decisions I've made in a long time they treat us drivers like family and not as a number they treat us with respect they offer the drivers plenty of great opportunities my DM is awesome he really shows how DM's are suppose to be because my last company didn't even come near to Hirschbach's level lol definitely looking forward to the future with this company I'm currently at our East Dubuque Terminal attending the driver Trainer class and it has been awesome so far today is the last day can't wait to get on the road and help our new CDL holders learn and understand how to properly operate a tractor trailer in a safe manor and get to the destination early or on time set them up for success! Thank you to all of the wonderful people who make it work here at Hirschbach yall are awesome and truly the best of the best!

Hischbach is a great company to work for. They are very driver oriented. They do there best to look out for their number asset, which is the driver.

Hirschbach is a decent, so far. Been here for over 120days. We'll update review later down the rd

Never worked for them could not get hired on because I don't sit on fuel island and go inside to eat like they do so if you sit on fuel island to eat or shower call them they will hire u
