Swift Transportation Response

Hi, We appreciate the feedback. Drivers get a week of PTO on their anniversary each year, starting after one year of employment. You can speak to your DL about this and other topics, but you can also find this information in our driver handbook.

Business Outlook

Pros

If you're a fresh out of a cdl school, they'll most likely hire you. This company is a good way to get your first 1 or 2 years of tractor trailer experience

Cons

The pay is low, but this is an industry-wide issue with trucking mega carriers, your first cdl gig will most likely be low pay no matter where you go
