Pros

Werner Enterprises is a starter company for new drivers to get the experience they need to move to a different level. This is a very safety conscious company. They preach about safety everyday. If it's unsafe don't do it & there safety instructors will tell you that going through orientation. It is your name on your license not theirs. The pay is pretty good & that depends on what account you are running in. Werner has several accounts according to where you live. I am currently working on owning my own truck not through werner but some where else so I can have more control of what I make & where I go & how often I'm at home.

Cons

This is a forced dispatch company if you are a company emloyee. There are good fleet managers & there are bad ones. Good dispatchers & bad ones. Werner has a complaint procedure that must be followed if there are disagreements. If you don't ever speak up and say there's a problem then nothing will get resolved. Fleet managers & dispatchers have bosses & there bosses have bosses so if shout loud enough somebody will hear you. I have had to file a complaint on 2 occasions & got results.
