"I'm in my fifties and this is probably the best company I've ever worked for. I'm only 3 weeks in but everything from orientation to my driver trainer to the support at the Distribution Center is amazing. I really can't say anything negative about the company the trucks are great the people that you work with are incredible and really concerned about you as an individual and value you as a driver"
DB SCHENKER Company Driver
"Good company with plenty of opportunities. Was able to run OTR as well as Dedicated runs with consistent home time. Equipment was maintained very well."
DB SCHENKER Company Driver
"I LOVE this company. Awesome people, from orientation to Driver Manager to CEO. I had the greatest DM. He was always looking out for my best interest with the loads he assigned me. The CEO was the most down to earth person. He put himself available personally for all the drivers and if you went to him with a problem, he did his best to fix it."
