    I was looking at some company paid training (because I don't have great credit :biggrin_25511:). I was wondering what anyone could tell me about Schneider, Roehl, and Stevens? As far as training goes? I do not have unrealistic expectations. I know it is gonna be tough and everything. But I have read some bad stuff about Schneider on ripoff reports. Though I thought they would be a good company. HELP!!

    I went to swift they were a pretty good training outfit twelve yrs ago. Dont consider England for sure my brother in law went to schneider. Where ever you go just put in your time and you will be able to pick you company. Most want six months some as much a two yrs. My dad went with Steven's out of Dallas. He did fine.

    I know one of the schools here in Texas has a grant that if you made less than 37g last year, and you have at leas 1 dependant that they pay for your entire training and cdl. Other than that if FFE is hiring in your area they are 1 company hiring new drivers without CDL and their business shouldnt be hurt too much due to their delivering produce (people have to eat even if they cant have that new 52 in LCD tv they want. I know they also currently have no debts and reported a profit the last fiscal quarter.
