Pros

One of the few companies willing to train new drivers in the bulk division, compared to other companies (from what I hear about those companies) schneider is good with home time. I'm OTR bulk, I work 3wks, and get 6 days home time, or I can stay out longer if I chose. Different programs, and positions to shoot for

Cons

Sitting around waiting for work, and being away from home. Not really their fault though, biggest problem is picking up a tank from tank wash, and the tank is either not there, or dirty, then you call management, they'll have you on the phone for 45 to over an hour finding you another tanker which eats away your drive time

Pros

Dedicated local account, driver leaders are nice, equipment is decent.

Cons

$12/hr on duty, not driving pay. That’s ridiculous and includes everything except driving. Work can be inconsistent at times, hours can be long, no holiday or mileage bonus pay for a long time after hire, benefits are expensive. Schneider won’t allow drivers to use Bluetooth or any other hands-free device, INCLUDING HEARING AIDS, to receive calls while driving. This makes having a life outside of work and scheduling appointments almost impossible.
