    2800 is a reasonable average for a company reefer driver at Prime.

    i would avoid prime inc totally--i worked there 2 months and pay was not good at all.
    i cleared $400 in those 2 months so quit and went to o&s in springfield and it was great at the time--prob not so good now since they have sold their soul to prime but it was great there and i only left for a local job to be home at night and make $24 an hour

    i was lease--there was always something coming up that you owed them for and when i went to my dispatcher with my concerns his answer was to find a new company so i did.
    prime is all about the money and are like every company--no matter how bad it is they have the company a@@ kissers and the ones that cant wait to drop a dime when you speak bad of them and there is one flatbed driver in particular (i know his name but will withhold it) that is the worst and when he sees prime drivers he will talk them up then run right back to his dispatcher or robert low to fill them in on what the driver had said bad about their company.

    Dang, you must have been a lease operator. About the only time I make less than 800.00 per week is when I am short on miles due to home time, Im a company driver. Looks like things are working out for you though.
