I'm on the fence. Schneider says that I will be out 5 days and will be home at minimum of 34hrs for my restart , And still run 2500 miles? Does this sound right?
Starting pay is higher with Prime .36 cpm. Prime is otr 1 day off for every week.
I have Orientation set up for both.
Thanks
Schneider or Prime

I drive for Prime but I don't think you could go wrong with either company as both will have their pros and cons.

If Prime says 1 day off for every week... That means you will only earn one day off for each week you work. They usually don't tell you the minimum time you have to stay out in order to take off. Most are at least 2 weeks out. Some are 3. Awfully hard on a family.
With SNI, you can get on a dedicated. Dedicated makes more money than OTR or regional. And you get regular time off... -
marke why don't u just try and get onto dedicated work at PRIME

I have never worked at prime. I hear they take care of their drivers while on break. That's what matters. Think about your creature comforts before you decide. I would go up to a truck stop. Wait beside the fuel island for a Prime truck and ask him how they keep them war in winter and cool in summer. Also ask them if they have inverters. Don Schneider is gone now. Bean counters are running the show now. Got to a truck stop and check. I think Prime has APU's. -
from what I have researched SNI is the more stable company with a better history.
