| Knight Transportation I received an invitation to orientation.I decided to visit the Op Center and ask more questions.When I arrived, I was shuffled off rudely to a recruiter by someone I had spoken to before, and by the way was (nice when I had talked to him before) but now was rude and short with me. The recruiter talked to me at length and basically gave me the company doublespeak and dodged alot of pointed questions. What stuck with me was the so called sliding scale and how you will be sent on many short runs 200- 500 miles.It is not rocket science to realize you would be working your as* off running the short miles and dealing with all the warehouse bullsh** and delays.Needless to say the recruiter would not answer the hard questions I had. I do not want negative feedback from Knight employees slamming me for my opinion.If you are an employee and happy there so be it. But it will NOT work for me. |

I work for Knight and your suspicions are true. It gets worse than that. But Volvo's are nice and they will get you home every week if that helps. |

| Thanks for the replies.I am not putting down Knight but just put down my experience with them. I found after checking into them further that it probably would not work for me. |

| Knight Knight was GREAT for me, but I know there not for everybody. Thats why when asked about Knight, I always say, what are you looking for? Hometime? Great equipment? Good Pay? etc.... most people will go with the flow and not realize that you need to ask yourself what you the driver needs, then find that carrier that fits those needs. I know a few Swift drivers that are happy driving for them, and been with them a few years. Good Luck on your search and always ask drivers at truck stops because you cant always believe recruiters!
