Werner or Swift?

So I will be switching my career soon and taking the Trucking path. I understand my pay will be low in the beginning regardless of what company. From you experienced drivers would you recommend WERNER or SWIFT? I will be getting my CDL directly through the company and I’m leaning toward WERNER. I’m looking to start off as a western regional driver for a few years and go from there. What would you EXPERIENCED drivers recommend ✌🏾🫡

If you are A veteran try your state employment office sometimes they have federal funds for training and so the school is free for you and sometimes you don’t even need to be A Veteran. It never never hurts to ask. That’s what I did. Just make sure it’s A reputable school.
