    Hi Guys,

    Wanted to get what companies you would consider that is half way decent for recent student driver graduates that live in CA? I have looked at so many company reviews on this site and am very confused now lol.

    I am pre-hired with Stevens, Covenant, Werner and Prime was also considering KLLM, please let me know your guy's advice. I am single, and not tied to anything so I am looking for a company that will provide the miles, decent pay and treats their drivers half way decent?

    Thank you in advance.

    Thank you, what is your opinion of Prime and KLLM? Everything I read on Prime seems to be a lot more positive than other companies. KLLM going through struggles?

    Just for kix, talk with KKW out of Pomona, Sunset Pacific out of Chino, and Gardner out of Chino. I don't know their new hire policies, but, ask them. Also, Osterkamp out of Pomona. Oh, what the hello, talk to Western Star out of Carson as well. These are smaller companies VS the megas.

    I know the owners of Gardener, as well as 20+ employees (through high school, church, and family trees) and it seems like its a good place to be.
