roehl stresses safety from day one. the orientation classes run about 6 to 10 per class sometimes a little more. orientation is 3.5 days and then you go out with a trainer for 10 to 13 days. sometimes you go home between orientation and training to wait for a trainer. tmc 's training is 8 weeks long with one trainer same truck to long for me. i've been with roehl for 18 months and havent had any problems with them.

Thanks for the advice guys! Going with Roehl seems to be my best bet for both safety and a company that does what they say (even though I know NONE of them can do everything they promise!) Now on to a more important issue.....

How do you send the lot lizards away and not end up with flat tires? :asta:

Just smile and say " No thanks". Most of them are really sad creatures.

Default Roehl questions

NewDude29...if you have any questions about Roehl please PM me. Finishing up my 2nd year with Roehl and would be happy to answer your questions. My first year was not easy with them but I have survived and am making a fairly decent living with them. I am nationwide van and have limited time at night for internet time so have a bit of patience for my response.

i've been with Schneider since June 06.
i hired on as a recent CDL grad. Roehl wouldn't touch me cuz i had taken a 2 week class, and they require either no training or 4 weeks (?)
anyhow, SNI is a bit slow to start, but they teach you everything you need to know. they got me my truck by the 3rd week of July.
the trick is you have to listen, take direction, and apply what they teach you.
I hear they have a very military style of training, and not everyone makes the cut.
Since i had been a recent CDL grad, they not only didn't make me sign a contract, but they reimbursed me my tuition at $200 a week. i'm a bit short, but i just paid off my truck school, and i don't feel like hounding them for the balance, but i'll look into it.

Anyhow, SNI pays the bottom of the scale, but what do you expect for a company that takes on so many rookie drivers? If you work hard and don't mess up, it's a good company. I've been shopping around, and I'm hard pressed to find a place I'd rather go, just for fear of the unforseen BS i'll have to deal with.
