    I agree with landstar being a mega, but I think the turnover rate is around 25% which is far better than most megas

    It would be nice to compare Schneider’s IC turnover. That would be a more apples to apples comparison

    5% after the first year. And you need a year with a clean record just to get here.

    And the lions share of the one's that leave in the first year, are kicked to the curb because they bring their mega carrier habits with them, they don't quit.

    I figured the attrition rate dropped drastically after the first year. Most of the mega’s turnover probably takes place in the first 6 months too.

    What's one of the oldest adage's in this industry?

    If they offer a sign on bonus, the job sucks.

    Never heard that, but now that you mention it, it sounds about right

    Exactly what I was thinking, it's been my experience in life if someone is bragging about what they make they're either lies or they're a fool.
