Is Werner a good place to work for?

Does Werner require another physical or will they accept you cdl school physical? If you're a little over weight, I'd pass on Werner if they require another physical. I'm not knocking the company, just the physical requirements.

 

Any company CAN be good depending on your outlook and attitude.

 

Ok, they also do hair follicle drug test.

 

Hmmmmm.....

What paperwork did they show you? Pay scale, cost of insurance, vacation policy, employee handbook, actual paycheck cut/miles driven to current drivers, inside of a truck you will ACTUALLY drive, new driver recommendations, meet trainers, meet terminal mangers, meet HR dude, greet office staff, etc.

Any recruiter can blow smoke.

Make a list.... Check it twice. Good luck!

Personally for me Werner was a "NO."

 

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

 

I'd pick a company with APU and other driver amenities. Remember there are state and company and city ordinances against truck idling.

 

Werner has APU's and inverters now right? Most of the company trucks I've seen lately have tripacs.
I started with Werner, essentially I was running as a team by day 4. But they didn't have me running night shift until about 2.5 weeks in.
Keep in mind, this was a bit over a decade ago lol.

 

That's good information!
