Pros

Training was decent. I actually got a brand new truck.

Cons

They promised $1000 per week minimum for the first 6 months. I received less than $500 on more than one occasion. I left after 4 months. have a family to support so I had no choice.

Swift Transportation Response

Hi, we no longer have guaranteed pay. When it was in place there were requirements in place in order to receive the pay. If you did not meet the requirements you would not be eligible.

Hi, we appreciate your feedback. We are open to changing driver's leadership if they feel that they could be a better fit working for another DL. We hope that you considered that option during your tenure with Swift.
