I see where 7 of their recent graduates are suing them for fraudulent enrollment claims... They are located in Pontiac, MI; Livonia, MI; and St Louis, MO....

They offer CDL training for approx $ 6000 to $10,000 for 3 weeks of training... Their ads indicate you can expect to make $34,000 to $40,000 the first year after graduation...

I am thinking part of the recent graduates problem... no job offers... and if any... for much less than $ 34,000 to start... Also, no job offers...no help with tuition reimbursement...

This may be become more of a problem with fewer of the bigger trucking companies offering "rookie" training...As I recall, Schnieder National discontinued their rookie training program a few months ago now...

My guess... keep looking and hopefully you have an overall good employement record and driving record before you paid or borrowed big $$$ to obtain a CDL license...

Any rookies visiting here with any recent experience???....sound off... I know our company is still hiring experienced and not so experienced bus-coach drivers... our older experienced drivers keep quiting or getting too old or health is too poor to drive in some cases.
The same sign on the fence that I saw that they were hiring...is still there and I met 2 other new drivers at the Monday night safety meeting...

I drove for twenty years before going into the ministry and always strive to learn something every day. A Older driver retiring told me the day that I don't learn something I will Quite driving. I ask why! he said that he would be dangerous to him self and others.

Be safe if in question ask never go on assumption.
