• Payroll Stability: Direct deposit hits your bank account weekly without fail or surprises.
• Onboarding Pay: Orientation is 100% compensated starting from your very first classroom hour.
• Assigned Fleet: Take command of your own late-model Freightliner or Kenworth tractor from day one—no truck swapping or sharing.
• Trailer Specs: Exclusively pulling dry van trailers, meaning you never need specialized endorsements.
