Pros
Good mechanics
Cons
Poor communication, slow to pay, slow to dispatch well just not dispatched to Trip Plan properly

Charge drivers for Direct Deposit, must work 3 weekends before seeing first check (if you start on a Friday), says pay on Monday but won’t receive money until Tues/Weds, small company who sit within feet away but somehow still cannot communicate things to each other to prevent errors. Best thing is the mechanics they are on their job, Owner is promising but if it’s not communitcated to the person completing the promise what good does it make. Dispatch needs to be on top I shouldn’t be given a load day of for pickup while on a currently deliver its unrealistic to trip plan on time. Meaning if I get a 2 stop load to deliver 9PM and the next 6am I should know a day earlier (not the day of) that I have to pick another load up “BY NOON”. Cuz I would start my clock next to the 9pm delivery and deliver the 6am earlier and take a 10.... but small company you get what u get

Pros
Home EVERY weekend and some days through out the week. Very helpful company thanks for the start!
Cons
They will send you off account to help other accounts which can be annoying when you’re use to being home! Pay sucks when that is done but they usually TRY to compensate with what your average would be.

Perfect first job! Highly recommend to any new trucker their safety is like no other and when/if you leave your next company (big or small) will truly respect hearing you worked for Schneider ESPECIALLY if your record can back you as well!! I chose a dedicated account which means to keep the account running you’d get better equipment and handy mechanics. JCPenney- Manchester, CT Started at .42CPM which was their highest paid account and area at the time Average 2000-2900 miles a week Best part when asked to help other JCP accounts they would let me in return Id go where they sent me so it was give and take, take an give back DBLs on hand saw them daily Easy to communicate with Just do your part and they’ll do theirs -A driver shouldn’t need much but to be paid on time and the amount they should, good equipment, home when should, good runs and to only be contacted if doing something wrong. Other than that, what could be your issue? With any company. Go dedicated ! Anywhere
