Company Opinions (Prime and Knight)

Knight is an extension of Swift and Prime is a company that rents you your job.

 

Are you planning on attending a trucking company cdl school?
Put your location on your profile. Arkansas?
Carter Express has school in Paragould. Haven't found any negative comments about the company.

Pros: None
Cons: Too many to list.

 

Make sure that your way of getting a CDL is approved by the company you choose. Most require an approved program/school.

 

I drove for Knight from 8/2012 to 5/2013.

Gulfport, MS terminal

I advise you to not go to Knight, my friend .

• rude, despicable "driver managers"
• lazy, unmotivated shop employees
who couldn't give a crap less.
• terminal manager Wayne has never driven a truck in his whole life. His previous job was being the equipment manager (errand boy)
For the minor league hockey team in Biloxi.

• passive aggressive safety Dept. People who print out pictures of damaged trucks and write what it costs on the paper , and tape it to thr walls of the bathroom stalls to try to force you to look at while you are trying to take a sh1t.

• they still had the old etch-a-sketch big Qualcomm units in the trucks, I don't know if they ever upgraded.

• They don't answer freeform messages hardly ever.

• if you go into Oregon, you better call them first , because they are so cheap they don't pay the 'oregon weight receipt' which is required to have to enter the state .
A weigh station cop did a inspection on me and wrote me a $435 ticket because of Knight's retardedness.

• I was kind of not real surprised when I heard about the manager getting shot at Katy TX terminal.
I understood how he felt.

I ain't a killer but don't push me....

 

Look up West Side Transport in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. You can start under their pay guarantee, which is $1000 per week for a new driver. I don't think you can find a carrier who can beat that! Message me if you have any questions. Why are you limiting yourself to these 2 carriers??
