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.
