Pros

You can get your CDL

Cons

You usually end up sitting on the weekends and they try to cheat you every chance they can. Zero work life balance. You have to stay out for weeks at a time of you want to make any money and when you do go on home time, the punish you for it by cutting into your check.

Pros

Swift has frieght. There is money to be made if you are willing to work and be patient. I have made friends.

Cons

To much red tape in the way of completing simple tasks. Can only fuel 1/2 tank per fuel stop. Drivers are treated without respect. Too many unpaid duties. Mandatory safety conference calls 2x per week also unpaid. And forced to send a daily safety commitment similar to writing sentences like a school child that has dine something wrong and finally: TOTAL INVASION OF PRIVACY!! CAMERA FACING DRIVER AND SLEEPER. EVEN IF YOU ARE A SAFE DRIVER. Lie to drivers and say cameras cannot be activated and seen live. A safety coordinator has personally tod me different. So many things can be improved. No consistency in the way the different terminals operate. I think corporate is too busy counting the money instead of fixing problems.
