Is Werner Trucking a good company to start my trucking career?

Question

Can I get ORT training with a trainer

Answer 1

I have driven for the Big Blue s***w, they are a place to start but there are some better ones. My main complaint with Weiner was their dispatch was very misorganized trying to dispatch you loads while you haven't delivered the one your under and I didn't receive very many miles and they didn't pay $hit. Their training consists of running teams and one can become a trainer with 6mos of experience. I would consider Schneider National, Roehl, KLLM, US Xpress, Covenant, Gordon Trucking. Theres a lot better out there do your research. Go to www.truck.net and ask on the roundtable there.

Answer 2

Yes, they're profitable, have no debt, global, and transport  a lot of commodities, which are booming now.

Good luck.

Answer 3

Another place to get honest information from real drivers is a group that a friend and I started for new and wanna-be drivers. We both have years of experience and with almost 400 members strong there is hundreds of years of experience within the group. Our group is FREE to join and if you should decide you don't like it you are always free to leave. We have lots of information in our File, Database, and Link section. We even have a mentorship program in place for those new drivers looking for one on one help. Our members are spread throughout the the US and some in Canada. Each one brings a variety of experience and education to the table from companies to equipment to the table. If you should decide to join us, which I hope you will, you will be asked for a fifty word comment as to why you want to join. All you have to do is say that Susan sent you and you will be approved with no problems. I hope to see you there...Link below
