I worked for APA for about two years & honestly it was a miserable place to work. I can almost promise you that you'll be on a 10 hour car 4 days a week. They don't allow much if any overtime. Generally treat their employees like crap. When I left I was making 12.50 an hour I believe. Insurance benefits are so-so. They have maybe 3-4 brand new rigs, but they don't let many people drive them. In one year when I was there, they went through 4-5 supervisors.

Anything else in particular you want to know? Is your interview with Wanda or Ernie?

Thanks for the info! Im not sure who my interviewer is. Would you recommend working somewhere else?

Yes! I honestly would never go back to APA. There are so many other companies out there that are much more reputable, and are much more well run. It's worth it to hold out for one of them.
