I used to drive local and regional out of KC Mo. Prime is headquartered in Springfield Mo. Knew a guy that quit them. They starved him out on.a bad lease purchase scheme. All his money went to pay for the truck was basically working for free.Someone told me they have regular company drivers but Ive never seen any. Strongly suggest steer clear of Prime.JMO Are you in Mo? If so theres better companies . What state are you in? If you are looking for school also I think Swift would be better choice. Avoid CRST,England and Prime. Post more about where you live and what you want to drive and I'll post back.Will be tough anywhere but Prime is worst choice. JM opinion.

 

If you want company sponsored school, I recommend taking the one with the shortest training period which gets you in the workforce sooner. Get all the endorsements, TWIC, passport while in training which will put you in a good position to move on after the obligation is complete, to a high paying company.

Do not agree to any lease agreement. Just be a company driver.

 

The 1st one any good in Cali would have to be Gordon Trucking (GTI).

 

Run from Prime and don't look back!
