    Welcome to the forum camels. There's a ton of info on Swift and Werner. I would pick Swift over Werner if that's all I had.

    Use the search feature or get to diggin and asking questions.

    Well i also got a offer back from Trans AM as well, out of the KC location and have read a few horor stories so far about them. This is a good place for info about companies and at the same time is rather discouraging when im still in my indepedant trainging school and are looking through my options, to see the bad experiences on here, i dont know what to expect from the company i choose. *heads hurting now ....

    so far i have heard back from Werner, Swift and TransAM and just put i app in with scheneider, have a app in with TMC but havent heard anything and dont think i will. It's hard finding a company that you think will treat you fairly when your a newhire and fresh off the streets.
