Hey everyone,
I'm going through Wolf driving school near chicago right now to get my CDL, and they say they want to recommend me to West Wind Express in Chicago once I get my CDL... I'm uncomfortable with this because,as far as I can see when researching, it looks like a small,family owned business.theres no other info out there and they arent't BBB accredited.
I would start off making like .33 cents per mile,not sure if its real mile or what...
Does anyone know about this company/heard of them/worked for them?? They dont seem to have their own web page,even.
Is it better to try to start with a big company like Schneider or Maverick? I'm just uncomfortable because ts a small company and theres not much info about them...
heres what i found:

Did you look at there CSA scores? I would run like hell away from them. Don't even think about working for them.....
Nightwind8830 Thanks this. -
Where do I find their CSA score? I'm not even sure what the data on the link I provided is saying.but I checked out a pic of the place it's in a hole in the wall place it doesn't look very legit..

Whatever you do, listen to the experienced drivers here. As a wannabe here for the last year, my knowledge of the trucking industry and respect for drivers is immense.

We went to Wolf. Who recommended you to this company ?
-
This is a bad company. I am sure you can find a better company.

Theres a brown haired woman in the office who, when I asked what companies I should apply for, she told me she'd problly have me apply there first. After seeing very little info online , I posted here.I didnt know how to interpret their stats, do I'm glad im getting this input.I dont understand why they would recommend this company if it's not safe.
