Question: I know W/S has gotten lots of good posts on here and in general people seem pretty pleased with their choice-that's not what I am asking. Per that earlier post of pay rates CPM-that seems a little low??? even for newbs????

Sounds ridiculously low... didn't read all the posts, but I suppose by "Orientation" some of these hands actually mean "Driver Training." Good lord, a 10-day "Orientation!!!" I don't wanna know that much about a company...
-
just going based on what my husband makes at different company (not gonna post either) and he started in Feb.

BIGLOU52 Thanks this.

My husband got less during training (164hrs) but CPM is way different. Is there any other pay? unload pay or ( I can't think of what the term is) when you sit too long pay?
Again thanks just looking for some info as seems like the bashing on W/S is far and few compared to like Swift or Werner. -
sammycat Thanks this.

I hope this helps. I know this forum helped me make my finally decision to join Watkins and I am glad I did. Little slow start with truck repairs but things are good and I am very happy. -
Thanks Cage and Deserted for the info!
Good luck to you both
btw Cage hubby has 07 Volvo 760 ( I want to say?)I see you got an 05. I think his has like 450k on it- he trained on Freighliner. The Volvo is much bigger inside but of course more truck to have to manuvere. Unfortunately some of his electric/outlets aree spotty. Nice truck though. Lots of storage.
