Profile For Ryan B.

I just started CDL school (NTTS in Liverpool, NY). We have had a couple of recruiters come in and talk to the students about their companies. Stevens Transport out of Dallas, TX has been our most recent. I know there is a thread somewhere on this already, but I want current information about them. I guess I’m looking for pros and cons about working for them. I was always told that if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is. I’m not unrealistic about home time. I understand you get one day off for every week you work and I’m totally prepared for that. Also I’m not unrealistic about pay, anything over .30 a mile is good for your first year on the road. What is the likelihood of a dedicated route near where I live (Syracuse) after I’ve done my time on the road and proven my worth? What smoke and mirrors did they throw at you before you went and then what was the truth about it? I don’t need information on their driver training program as I’m already obtaining my CDL prior to going to any company. I just want to know what people liked/loved about them and the things you didn’t like about them. I also understand each person is going to have their own likes and dislikes. Just trying to get a feel for them before I make too big of a choice to find out if I’m going to be unhappy later on. All information is good information. Thanks in advance.
