The most difficult and unexpected "question" was NFI's requirement that driver candidates sign a "Pre Employment Agreement" that appears written by a sixth grade dropout; so poorly put together that only self confidence offers a suggestion of what NFI MAY be intending to accomplish. And, that would be the intent to have DRIVERS responsible for NFI costs of doing business, specifically cost of wrecker usage, cost of accidents, equipment costs, claims costs, and repair costs. The wording of the document (while MAYBE intending to) does not limit the drivers' exposure to those costs. I perceived that a driver could be surprised by being held financially responsible for these costs and have money withheld from a (final) paycheck, or repeatedly. As a minimum, the Agreement potentially places the driver in an opposing position with his/her employer. Moreover, NFI makes no leeway to account for equipment pre-condition upon assignment, at least at the time of signing the Pre Employment Agreement. If that is made available later, say when equipment is actually signed for by a driver, then I don't know that and, IMHO, such timing is too late in terms of drivers' exposure to NFI costs. NFI was unwilling to do away with the Agreement nor to modify it at the time of my experience. That was a "deal breaker" and I walked. (I did reach out to several CDL-A drivers from various companies and learned that they had not been asked let alone required to sign such a document as the NFI Pre Employment Agreement.)
