Pros

Benefits were the main reason I took this job. They were cream of the crop. I was given valuable information that taught me alot about the transportation industry.

Cons

Management harrased you, invaded your space/privacy, and sent out 100's of emails daily updating numbers and dumb racey pictures that they found amusing. For being as micro-managed as it was, one thing the management lacked was respect for employees. This place had no open-door policy for employees to vent without every manager knowing your business and then making things personal. Managers had clicks like high school, gave away accounts to their "drinking buddies", and if they didn't like you personally; they'd find a way to fire you by raising your numbers to where they were unattainable. Now talking money...Their incentive program would pay out quarterly. Once you attain $35,000 in margin in a quarter, they would then pay you 10% for margin after that, not including. That would then get taxed at 40% leaving you with peanuts. Nuff Said.

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.
