Brian Jennings has been a regional truckload driver out of Knoxville, TN since 2014. Brian gives a heartfelt testimonial about his love for Averitt, the benefits we offer, and his career with us.
I'm Brian Jennings, I'm a truckload driver out of Knoxville, Tennessee, and I've been with Averitt since 2014. I chose Averitt because I got tired of the other carriers always messing with your pay, talked to some guys from on tour logistics up in Wytheville, Virginia and like what they had to say. The benefits are awesome. It's one of the best companies I've ever worked for because there's benefits, they listen to you if you got a problem, they take care of you, they don't, you're just not a number you're a name here, and that's one of the reasons I chose Averitt. The benefits here are off the wall. They're just excellent. The medical dental vision they're just I mean second to none. Profit sharing, time off, that's good, we enjoy our time off. The benefits have helped a lot with our medical. I have 15 year old that had to get braces and it barely cost us any money which is awesome. They cover my daughter, Peanut, and she don't use them much, but when she needs them, she's covered. Profit sharing is excellent, I mean, everything here, I mean, who gives you things like this and you enjoy where you work? That's the best thing I got about Averitt. The benefits are crazy,. The home time situation with Averitt is second to none. If they tell you you're gonna be home Friday, nine out of ten times, you're gonna be home on Friday. Your weekends are yours. Holidays, they're paid and they want you to take them off when you're on vacation, they tell you go on vacation no don't work and we'll pay you go on vacation take a break get away from the truck and that's one of the things I really like about Averitt. I tell people that I try to refer to Averitt, if you're tired of the same old garbage with the company you're with, put in an application, check us out, I mean, I tell them the perks the, you know, the benefits that are here, the new equipment we drive, the tractors are, there's nothing really over three years old here, the trailers are less than five to six years old. It's good equipment that doesn't break down. You're home on the weekends and the pay is pretty dargon good. As far as being with Averitt, I'll retire here. I'm very happy. Home, this is home. The people are good, company's good, and this is why I'm retiring here, if I ever retire! I stay here at Averitt because I like it. I heard a thing the other day, it said if you love what you do, you should love where you work, and I do both.
Brian is excited about Averitt's benefits, saying, "The benefits here are off the wall - the medical, dental, vision, they're second to none." He also comments about his family's personal health experiences and how Averitt's benefits have helped them tremendously.
