My name is Khan Moniruzzaman, and I worked as a CDL company driver for Bari 91 Inc., located in Markham, IL, for 2 months. My experience with this company was extremely frustrating and dishonest from the start.
The recruiter, “Mike,” made a deal with me for 70 cents per mile before I joined. He asked me to fly from New York to Chicago to start the job. But when I landed at the airport, he changed the deal and said it would be 65 cents per mile. That was never part of our original agreement. Mike was always quick to call me when he needed something, but when I had an emergency or needed support, he and the company would never answer my calls. No one ever picks up the phone.
They also held $3,000 from me as an escrow (security deposit), promising to return it in 2 months after leaving the job. It’s now been over 3 and a half months, and I still haven’t received it. Mike and the entire office staff have completely stopped answering my calls. The owner, “Alex,” told me once that he would look into the matter, but he also stopped taking my calls.
This company is sucking blood from the drivers in many ways. They make mistakes on their end but deduct money from the driver’s paycheck anyway.
When they recruit drivers, they claim to provide brand-new 2024 or 2025 Freightliner Cascadia trucks. But when you arrive, they give you the worst truck they have — in my case, it was from 2013.
I feel scammed and helpless. I would strongly warn other drivers to avoid Bari 91 Inc. at all costs.
