Answer:
How much does CR England pay for a recruiting bonus to their drivers. I met a driver there once made a whole lot more money recruiting than driving. The same witha lady I met who's husband was a driver for Prime. Never made much driver pay but made up for it in recruiting.
That might be the first question I would ask in a chat. Then the second thing i would say is I already have my app in. Then no one gets a bonus. Other than that believe what you hear and stay away from England.

Answer:
Stuffs, Every England driver I've ever talked to said they ENJOY working for them. They say it's Mormons family values.

I trained with Schneider. No regrets, but I don't remember a boot policy and have no desire to bring a pet in the truck---------------------------

Answer:
I spent 14 months with CR England. I won't say they were bad, but when I left I started pulling flats, working less and making considerably more money. I look back at England as a training company. Nothing more, nothing less. They don't look for long term drivers, just meat in the seat. I haven't driven for any other large companies so I can't compare England to any other large carrier.

Answer:
I just completed 3 weeks training with Schneider and am leaving to go OTR with a training instructor tomorrow morning. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about the training or anything so far.
As for the boot policy, on the last day of training the "boot-mobile" came to the training center. Everyone of the students who made it thru training were paraded out and picked the boots that they wanted. These were paid for by Schneider. I don't particularly like wearing boots, but the pair I got look just like a pair of high-top tennis shoes. Don't let the boot policy hinder your choices.
Schneider is very focused on safety. They require you to wear safety boots because they did studies on slip and fall (on-the-job) accidents and found that most persons involved were not wearing safety shoes. It is cheaper for them to buy and then require you to wear the shoes, than to pay you for being off on a workermans comp issue.
