    I don't have much info on sni but I do enjoy working for Roehl. What questions do you have? I'll help as much as possible on the Roehl side

    Don't know about Roehl... but I was at sni for about two years and started with them right out of school. Would do it again. Did dedicated, regional and otr with them. Nice thing is you have an OC pretty much in every state or at least a yard if you need parking or shower - truck stops fill up quick so its nice to know that you can find parking pretty much anywhere.

    Hey thanks, that helps. I like the fact that they offer tankers,so maybe down the road I could do the energy "oil" runs and make some good $$

    This is why I'm signing on with SNI as an exp. O/O. After two years off the road, I decided to join one of (if not) the biggest carriers out here. It'll help get what I've lost (if anything) back and I believe I might be able to learn more from them. For my current needs/wants, I have more choices made available by going with SNI. Plus ACT doesn't hire out of AZ... lol.

    Hey thanks. they do have great training.Have you started with them yet? What's a realistic $ I can make weekly with either of them. Are we talking $700 gross or so? They both offer exc benies etc.

    Is there anyone out there that went to Century College/Afton in Minnesota for their CDL. How does the schools training measure up for the hiring companies training?

    If you go with Roehl you will be in one of the safest fleets out there!!! We never have to pull into scales hardly ever inspected by DOT. Also Roehl is buying all new equipment there is a good chance you will be driving a 2012 or 2013 truck . I to work for Roehl and safety is what keeps me here, I like knowing if i have an issue with the truck it is fixed. I had a friend who worked for Schneider and he loved it his only complaint was that he sat alot he worked in the tanker division there. Either company is a decent company i would say I can tell you if you go with Roehl be prepared to forget everything you learned in the truck driving school. Roehl teaches you a whole different way of thinking about driving......
     
    DrtyDiesel Thanks this.
