Pros

Individual employees are some of the best people to work with in the industry. Many great veteran drivers working there. This company used to be a "goal" company to eventually work for to continue your career.

Cons

They have gotten so focused on "Safety" that they have actually created a more unsafe environment. From collision mitigation systems that slam on the truck brakes for nothing, to hyper-sensitive computers that have no concept of actual surroundings. They hire hundreds of inexperienced drivers weekly while struggling to keep their veteran drivers consistently moving. They no longer listen to their drivers but more the insurance company and selling out the Driver to save a buck.

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.
