Well I don't know much about them, but I do know about Swift. I drove dry van for them for 10 months, and hated every minute of it. I have talked to many many guys at terminals and what not that were flatbedders for Swift, and in a nut shell, don't waste your time working for Swift. Whether you are flatbed, dry van, local.....they will treat you like a robot rather than a human being and will always have trouble getting you home. These were my two biggest issues with them, and a lot of others that have driven for them feel the same way. So, for what its worth, you can do better than Swift, trust me.
