looking for the best company to start with

Just getting started in the industry and am finishing school up in a couple weeks and have had several companies contact me already. Was wondering if anyone could give me some inside scoop on them so I can avoid ending up in a crappy situation. Or if anyone knows a better company that hires fresh out of school I'd appreciate any input. I'm living in Bloomdale ohio which is about 40 minutes south of Toledo. The companies that have comtacted me are KLLM, H.O.W. Holding, Maverick, Falcon, Roehl, Valley (Ashland oh), US Express. Again any input would be much appreciated.

So from my research here's what I've gathered. Most seem to agree maverick is an ok place to start. ROEHL reviews turn up a lot of drivers saying they don't get enough miles to make any money. Valley has a lot of guys saying they like you to fudge your logs...which blows cause they are close to my house. US X seems decent if you don't mind being gone a lot. KLLM has called three times already, the lease option seems like suicide but I have,no interest in that. Company drivers for em turns up a lot of bad reviews. Falcon also doesn't sound too bad depending on who you talk to, guess they use older equipment? H.O. Holding seems hit or miss. So all in all I'm still not sure which way to go. Seems like every company has someone saying something bad about em.( the ones who have called me). The ideal situation would be home on weekends getting about 500 bucks a week. Probably dreaming too big with that coming fresh out of school.

 

Yeah that would be great to get a no bs take on a company. Name is michael wolfe and I put in an app but if they cant find it they can reach me at 419-494-8370

 

Do the miles stay consistant? What all does the glass division do besides hall glass obviously? I read the starting pay various but.do most students make it through their training or do alot fail? Also how do.they feel about tattoos? Have em all over including.neck and hands but none are offensive or.vulgar
