    Megas are ok to get started. Don't discourage your buddies from them.
    Owner-operators hate them because "they haul cheap freight", but so do many owner-operators.
    With a mega, cheap freight doesn't affect the company drivers pay.

    That's why I wanted to check with you all. I don't want to give them the wrong impression.

    But there are a lot of people who are happy working there....in fairness, more people are quick to complain about a company then compliment....did you work there?

    Schneider training leaves a lot to be desired.

    Werner, despite the bad rap. My Dad drove for them,for 10 yrs. after years as a Union Driver. He trained, and did pretty good. They paid him the same rate, for all miles ran. Trainees made a flat rate, during Training.Long trips, coast to coast. Good equipment, good health insurance. Not much home time. Guaranteed 1 day off for each week out. So, every 3 weeks, home 3 days. But He made up to $1500 a week sometimes at .30 cpm. That was 20 years ago.

    The best depends on a person’s priorities. Is it the highest pay? Or perhaps the freight lanes and home time. Or least amount of time on a trainers truck. Or whatever.

    So the best is individual and starts with determining what is important and seeing who matches. We all don’t want the same thing.
