Pros

You WILL get a CDL unless you are a complete moron

Cons

Everything else. From the lack of training (trainees are force fed the answers to the CDL exam while completely ignoring the rest of the DOT rules) to the horrible conditions trainees are forced to endure while in "school" the training is crap. Then the few that do graduate are forced onto the streets with a trainer that has little or no experience themselves. I was lucky and got one of the better trainers that had a good amount of experience but that is not the norm. After training they give you the hard sell on leasing and becoming a trainer right away (they even wanted me to finish my training by becoming a trainer!). Solo company drivers get low miles (less than 2000 a week) and the CPM is laughable. Take home for a new solo company driver would be between $250-$325 per week. Stay away from this company at all costs.The recruiters will tell you anything to get you to sign on. The only thing i was not lied to about was he had a bus ticket waiting for me.
