It was a good place to learn/specialize in trucking liability. When I was there, it was mostly lawyers in cushy positions calling the shoots. Growth was limited without a JD degree and being in the right click. I think they cleaned house at the top of the Claims department which is good. The head person was promoted out and then canned. He acted nice but couldn't be trusted, in my experience with him. HR, unlike any other company I worked for, has a huge influence on everything, Be careful when dealing with HR.
