About to finish trucking school in a couple of weeks and wanted to know if they would be a good first company to work for.
How is it to work for Schneider?

Shop around before choosing.
Which state and nearest city/town?
We can give you several choices to compare and probably much better pay.
Edit:
Do you want to take a pet along?
Do you have endorsements?
Do you want to run all over the USA?Last edited: Nov 11, 2021

I’m finishing the last week of the three week training with Schneider for new CDL grads. The training has been good, and they definitely emphasize the authority of the driver to stop the truck if conditions aren’t safe. The training is a lot shorter than most other companies, which could be good or bad depending on your perspective. Most of the instructors I’ve had have been with the company at least 5+ years.
As a starter company, they seem above average from what I’ve heard about other mega carriers. Pay is definitely the biggest downside. I went with them because I was looking for something pretty specific and they had an opening that met those needs. -
Do they offer good training on coupling and uncoupling? I’m thinking about a refresher course.
Speed_Drums and Lonesome Thank this. -
