My husband has worked for Roadway for 9 years.He was transferred to another terminal and we spent a great deal of money relocating".6 weeks later they laid him off/.The union does not protect the employees and the labor practices of this company are horrible?.There is absolutely no job stability or

certainty working for these people,.I hate Roadway..

Since Yellow bought the company it is WORSE;.

You do not want to work for these idiots unless you want a 1000% stress level!.Roadway=BADWAY!!!!! We are now in great financial stress because of this..

How can you relocate an employee 400 miles and then lay them off after 6 weeks??UNFAIR!!! 1286209

Yellow has ruined Roadway Express. Back in the 1960's The goverment said they would do all they could to take down the union's. All unions. And they are making it happen. That Bill Zollars chairman of the board now for YRC he use to be on CNN News channel every weekend. Before he became what he is today. So I think he's getting paid by the goverment to run YRC Into the ground. But whats he gonna do when the goverment backs out on him. And YRC goes under good luck hiding!!! There won't be a rock that he can hide under !!!

It is not the company that took you down the road, unfortunately it is the union. You obviously dont have a strong union rep to tell you all the things that the company can do. My husband's terminal relocated 4 times but he hung in there because teamster retirement is awesome. Roadway is a good company who treats the employees well.
