Slow dispatch Poor management Low pay They lie about being local Forced dispatch

Swift Transportation Response

Hi, We have local routes that drivers who qualify could apply for. We encourage you to reach out to our placement center to learn more. We are not forced to dispatch. Drivers decide when they move and when they don't. If you have specific examples of your pain points, please submit a VYC so we can address them appropriately.
