Hello! I’m looking for the good/bad/ugly trucking companies to possibly work for (or avoid) after I graduate CDL school. I understand putting in my dues will be for about the first year or so, but looking to not get run over. I’ve had my eye on knight and Schneider so far, but nothing too specific for Oregon as a rookie. Ideally I’d rather avoid doing 6+ weeks of OTR with a trainer if possible (just not that comfortable around a complete stranger 24/7). Looking for my husband to join in the near future for teaming. Ideally allow a dog/pet after a certain timeframe/mileage. My family lives on the coast of oregon so finding companies that have routes there would be ideal (especially if they allow you to take the truck home during home time). Thanks for any advice you may have to send my way![]()
