What Prime will do is show you a bunch of fuzzy math and big "what ifs" as if they will happen to demonstrate to you how much more money you will make if you lease a truck instead of remaining a company driver. You will hear this from recruiters, your trainer who will most likely be a lease operator, your dispatcher, etc.
Another problem with Prime is thier training program. From practically day one you will be running as a team with your "trainer". Yeah you will be paid a bit more than what other companies offer in training pay, but you will be working your butt off to get it, and their so called training program lasts a lot longer than other companies do, including time you will spend attending CDL school before hiring on and going out with a trainer.
