Hi, we appreciate your feedback. We always encourage our drivers to have open communication with their leadership. This includes asking questions when load information is not clear. As a current Driver, you always have the Placement Team at your disposal. They are trained to know what opportunities may be available around you that may provide better pay. We hope you had an opportunity to speak with them before leaving Swift.

Pros

I got my CDL for free (two year commitment), Was paid for my time driving as a trainee and was treated with respect by my driver leader team. If I was too sick, or the weather was too bad or I had an emergency at home, they were always willing to work with me. I would highly recommend Swift as a stepping stone into the industry.

Cons

Pay was pretty good, but not great (hence "starting point"). It's a big enough company that communication is sometimes an issue. More so at the terminals than on the road. There was one delivery (out of hundreds) where the receiver was a bit put out that I had not brought cash for a lumper fee. We worked it out, but I had not been informed. Minor details all in all.

Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're glad that you have had a great experience with your terminal team and built a solid relationship with them. We encourage you to speak with them about opportunities such as mentoring, team driving, and other LOBs that might help you reach your earning goals at Swift.
