Pros

Paid weekly and on time Decent equipment No driver cameras Training isn't forced team

Cons

Home time never on time Pay is mediocre at best Miles are there but how they're assigned is a mystery Everyone always blames a different department no matter the issue. Or blames the driver Support shift is a joke that only knows how to read the company policy and not actually do anything. Asking why I've only driven in the NE for a month and hearing that it's because my NAT isn't updated properly is just pathetic. Paid HHG miles. Excuses along the lines of "I don't know any other company that pays differently" when asked about loads that are 700 miles driven but pay 500.

Pros

Dedicated local account, driver leaders are nice, equipment is decent.

Cons

$12/hr on duty, not driving pay. That’s ridiculous and includes everything except driving. Work can be inconsistent at times, hours can be long, no holiday or mileage bonus pay for a long time after hire, benefits are expensive. Schneider won’t allow drivers to use Bluetooth or any other hands-free device, INCLUDING HEARING AIDS, to receive calls while driving. This makes having a life outside of work and scheduling appointments almost impossible.
