I have been with schugel for two years now, and I don't have much to complain about. I drove solo for the first year and a half, and it was great! I ONLY HAUL DRY VANS!! I don't like to have to sit in docks all the time with a reefer! Of course, there was a few times that I was cussing and fussing about the company but the good outweighs the bad. Yeah, the pay is .36 per mile, but I hardly ever sat around, unless i begged for a 34. Most companies that offer u better pay for your experience don't have the miles to keep yo u running. And even with the new e-logs (which I was totally against!) you can still make a decent living. For solo drivers, I would totally recommend J & R Schugel any day! On the other hand, Team drivers shouldn't even look at the company. As a team, we make about the same amount we were making solo, and it doesn't make driving as a team worth it. Every company has something wrong with it, however, you just have to find out what you want to deal with and how it will suit you. As for the safety rating, it has gone down hill because certain states look for our trucks..but we are all working on it!
