    Hi drivers. Is Schneider Intermodal a good company to work for? Average pay, including accessorial pay and mileage? Good equipment? Average work week? Anybody up in the Worcester, Mass. yard?
    Thanks!
     
    Ms. Santiago Thanks this.

    Not sure about Mass, I drove down in Charlotte on the intermodal. I liked the hometime, the pay was good for as much as I got home. My full year there I made over 60K. Schneider in general has a lot of policies I didn't like, but when you work for a mega carrier its to be expected.
     
    RookieJ1987 and Surfer Joe Thank this.

    It's ok, I drove for them in chicago. Lots of rules to follow and equipment is a toss up. Might get a brand new truck might get stuck on a million mile hunk of crap century. Pay was decent, as a driver with a relatively small amount of experience I think I made about 52000 for the year I spent with them. Overall it's probably one of the better mega carriers if not the best one out there. That says something but really no mater what you're doing for them they will still get on your nerves with their mega carrier ways of doing every little god #### thing.

    Never worked for Schneider but had one of their drivers who hauled containers back & forth in Carlisle PA show me his paychecks;.Each week he was showing a $thousand. Said he had to pull 3-4 runs a day.

    That's pretty good pay. What sort of policies? I actually like the rigidness. Makes for much better safety.

    No cell phone policy, not even with a hands free bluetooth device. I'm sorry, maybe some of the seat fillers you hire can't drive and talk on the phone at the same time, but I have 2 million safe miles, and don't need to be lumped in with some kid just coming out of CDL school. No plug coolers what so ever, ice chest only, ridiculous. Idle policy, the preach safety, but the intermodal trucks didn't even have a battery powered APU ststem. So I'm supposed to sweat my arse off and not get a proper rest, while the evening temps are in the mid 80's in the Carolinas. And finally, the changed the pay system, I knew when the introduced it one day In a safety meeting that the drivers would e getting screwed. About two weeks ago I ran into a driver still running on the intermodal fleet, I asked how the "new" pay system was working out.....he confirmed what I figured, all dtivers basically took a pay cut. None of the bonus incentives can be met anymore.
