Show respect and pay attention you'll get the same from the people in this company don't waste their time and money. Great people great company they have done everything they said they would in the 9 months I've been here I'm satisfied and don't have any plans on leaving... training is just that tra...
Been with Raider Express since June 09 and they've gotten better every year! Good days, bad days, like any other company. Bonus/rewards program second to none and tractors are the most fuel-efficient in the industry.
Robert will keep your training money !! and End of week send you back home.do not believe what they say specially donald roddy. After i left them i got my cdl without any restrictions in 2 weeks. Don't waste time there .they make money from govt to use your information and send you back home with...
After searching all over the metroplex for trucking schools, I came across Raider Express. I am so glad I made that call! In 3.5 weeks I went from zero, not knowing anything to now having my CDL!!! The school and the instructors are all awesome. The school is absolutely FREE and you get paid cla...
It's ok. Easy to get your cdl 4-5weeks. And competitive for a load. The fuel bonus is bs. Most trucks don't get you the fuel bonus you want. Pay solo is .39/mile.
I am very disappointed as I invested 4 weeks into this training with the hope of landing the job after. I already had my CDL but they claim that I don t have experience . I expected them to allow me to prove my self and gain experience with them once training was complete.
The trainers here are rude and unqualified. They advertise this as a 4 week program but it is actually entirely at their discretion. While there I witnessed them put out so many trainees for no reason at all. It's all based on likes here. If they do not "like" you then they do not allow you to advan...
Im experienced driver and was looking for a long haul company to join. I had been out of the country for a few years and need to get my CDL again, all I had left was my driving test. I was working with a recruiter whos name starts with a D (that's all I'll say). He made it seen like I would be on t...
Recruiter is rude!!! And sounds like he doesn't wanna answer any questions, called a few different times but guess he's the only 1 they got working there.
When you call you will see what I mean. EXTENTION 5004
Good luck -ALSO- my wife called on a different occasion and what a jerk. She s...
Watch out for this company they don't pay there bills they still need to pay me the rest of my money for a wreck caused by there driver so please if one ever hits you turn it in to your insurance not there's and let your insurance take on the Battle it has been over two years waiting for the rest ...
The best experience I had as far as the school and training. Everyone is great and knowledgeable. You get plenty of time with instructors to get you where you need to be. Planning on being with this company for a long time. Charles beevers
Kevin D Brooks is a good instructor and very patient to students. He teaches a very easy and clear tip and he is very knowledgeable concerned with a truck and students' weak points. I recommend him.
Been with them for 4 months, 0 issues with pay. Good equipment. Good Dispatch, good miles.
Update: Been with the company going on 2 years. School is 100% free. Yes, you end up paying for the hotel if you use it but the company pays for it up front. There is no contract to sign, no money to p...
I just finished the training and I'm currently on the road with my trainer. The school is great! The trainers have a very low tolerance for BS, but will go out of their way to make sure you learn. I had the opportunity to work with every trainer there and they all had a way of getting through to MOS...
95% of the driver's I've ever encountered from this company are some of the most stupidest I've ever seen from the truck stop lots shipper/receivers and highway. No common courtesy whatsoever. I hope to God you don't get caught behind one on 287.
I'm only giving them two stars because of one drive. this driver is so lousy that he was in too much of a rush that he wouldn't let me over when my lane was ending. granted I had the right away anyway he wanted to ride my trailer all the way up the hill well the last .3 miles instead of slowing down...
Good school and teachers. They give you the tools to be successful otr. There are several times you can be kicked out so it's up to you to put in the work.
Bunch of steering wheel holders. Drive 15 under in a 65. Speeding through construction and school zones. All the while both feet on the dash, headphones and completely oblivious to their surroundings.
I love Raider! The company and the instructors are so good. You can assume since it s free school students come in from every corner, some who have no clue to some who have English barriers, but the instructors are happy and helpful to get you in Thank you! The only bad guy is the guy who check ...
Mrs. Harrison, otr driving is not for everyone. In today's business companies do not warehouse products like they did in the past. When you call in on your 1st day they should have fired your husband. They gave him another shot & it sounds like he may not be cut out for this lifestyle. He should try...
Going 45-50mph blocking traffic on 287 in Colorado where it s one lane is dangerous !!! Stop doing that there s a huge line of trucks and cars that can t even pass .
If I could really rate them it would be at 0 because.its the worst place to try to get your cdl.they need some real certified trainers.its like they let any body become a trainer at that place.plus they're always students failing the road test so that messes with your seat time.they dont have enough...
Worked for this company for over three years. Every time I came to the yard in fort worth there was a totaled truck. They have there own trucking school ft. Worth cdl school . Very dangerous. Putting people on the road who can't even back a trailer. Then they want you to drive 55 miles and hour....
What a jerk!!! Dude at extension 5004 answers very rudely. He could care less if you join their school or not. He acts like he is angry when you ask questions to learn more about their school and I had to try hard to pry any info out of him. He was not helpful, treats you like you're a criminal an...
Just checked their pay. Would be decent if it was 1995 but the cost of living has gone up 70% since then. And why would a driver care if the trucks are fuel efficient..lol
can afford a new facility on 287 but can not maintain the speed limit??? another traffic jam caused by trk 4871 at the 35e/35w split. haha what a joke unsafe speeds. obviously i am not the only one with issues against your company. safety department not doing a good job
I called the recruiter to get more info about their training and the a-hole who answered the phone was very unprofessional. He refused to answer simple questions and demanded that I fill out an application. Why would I fill out an application for you if you can't answer simple questions? Good help i...
They treat their employees with so much respect. I have never met a group of individuals as amazing as these.
Safety is their number one priority and being a safety and compliance supervisor for UPS, it means everything to me to. I never have to worry whether my husband will come home or not beca...
After a trucker almost running myself and others off the road and showing no signs of remorse. He's lucky it was me on the road instead of my husband with our boys, cause he definitely wouldn't have gotten away with that unexcusable behavior.
Do not believe anything Tony has said negative about this company. I am a recent cdl graduate and everything is true and upfront from day one the director of recruiting comes in and lays it out on the table and ask if you were told any different. Great company great instructors and environment highl...
If this place worked as hard at taking care of drivers as they do at making your life difficult when you choose to leave their POS company, they'd be half decent. They withheld my check even though I no longer owed anything, and refused to produce any documents showing the supposed balance that they...
declined for having a criminal back ground lol I never been arrested in my life tell Me what kind of company they really are if they can't figure out my name right or my date of birth
so I do not work for raider but I am interested in obtaining my cdl.i have a very good job and the pay is great.i have work as a master tech with bmw for 26 years.never failed a drug test just thinking on a career change I started reading reviews and made a call to raider.the young lady answered all...
As a graduate from the school my experience was good. But it does come down to factors. What you put in is what you get out of it. I would recommend this school to those who know how to be on time and those who are not hot headed. It is a tough school but the instructor are very knowledgeable. Don t...
So their recruiters are non-cooperative and rude, and management is even worse. I had heard nothing but bad things about this place, but training was free so I thought I would give it a shot. Glad I dodged this bullet, their are plenty other places that offer free training and that don't abuse emplo...
At 0755 this morning as I was backing out my driveway which is directly across from the school in our little town of 700 people, a Raider Express truck barreled boldly through the school zone. It appears he had turned off US54 onto KS34 and accelerated up our Main Street. By the time he traveled the...
I applied with this company and have a very clean driving record and background however for some reason they not think that I was capable of operating a big rig. Part of me thinks that maybe it's because I'm a female definitely would never apply for this again.
Too many bad reviews here, Honestly you have to sacrifice a lot in order to get your Cdl but it is worth it in the end. Make sure you have your mind set up before coming here. It won't be easy I promise but been here for a year and I'd like to say they have treated me pretty well. Btw lots of people...
I really want to thank the makers and everyone who put together this school. I really love the trainers here at Raiders Express. Everyone is always in a good mood and I'm really learning swiftly. The first trainer I met was Corey. He help me to pass my permit test on the second day of school. Corey ...
Called to get information on the company to possibly drive for them. The first recruiter was very rude and hung up on me.... Why was I dumb enough to call right back? I did the second recruiter was just as rude but she at least did not hang up on me. Neither one wanted to give me any information. Wa...
Got my CDL with them and Drove with them for two years.
As a starting company not bad, but one look at their pay scale and you will understand why, I no longer with them as an experienced driver. Only way to make money is take a different trainee with you every one to four weeks, depending on wh...
The program to work there is under a one way system. I was recently in the program and was sent home simply because the trainers assume that I wasn t gonna to work for the company and because I ve had trucking background or been around trucking all my life. If you wanna come to this company and go ...
Please don't come here, I obtain my CLP permit within 3 days of being here and I was able to back the truck for at least 2-3 blocks and I never drove a truck before. However I was having a little problem with how to map a route and the instructor Darren was being an ass about it, but he just doesn't...
They are understaffed and refuse to hire new trainers. There s no separate instructor for people who have been there for weeks vs new trainees so they all get bunched together which means if you have already been there for 3 weeks you will have to sit there twiddling your thumbs while new people are...
I'm currently under contract with a trucking company out of Texas for a year I'm otr for 2 months now not liking allot of things going on, do you take Driver's that's have contract with other companies.
Those guys didn t even know how to talk to people I was looking to get my cdl through this company After I talk to him on the phone I changed my mind Never mind
Would not hire me because I messed up on my application it's too bad cuz I got my CDL with no problem but I get to work for Swift instead...I am a owner operater now 2yrs later! $2/mile minimum upto $4/mile 1700-->2500 miles a week no governed speed. But still stay at 63 to 68.. never let anyone ru...
I checked on multiple companies in my journey to get my CDL. The best sounding by far was Ft Worth CDL. FREE FREE FREE. Now with free comes people looking for "free" or a handout. You will find no handouts here. I applied and started the More
Just finished the program today!! I can t lie it was hard but if you study and listen to the instructor s and put 100% into it then you will pass! I would really like to Thank my Favorite instructor Kevin! who even went the extra mile to teach us....And Robert! He had me frustrated but I got it
alright first off I never ever fill out reviews for any place; good or bad. I felt obligated to get on here and set the record straight. A lot of the negative reviews you see on here are coming from lazy ass people who didnt actually take any initiative / were mad because they didn't get free money....
Awesome guys, great team too! No kidding, these guys delivers. They give you all the training you need in 4 weeks and they hardly give up on anyone. Plus it's free, and the cool part of it is you get paid for being in training school.
I had a good time and got my CDL within 4 weeks. My gratitu...
Worst company to go to for training spoke to one of there recruiter whitney robertson and she was very unprofessional and rude......wouldnt recommend this place to my worst enemy
I was looking for a new career after selling my business of 25 years and obtaining my CDL was always a dream I had always wanted to do.
After researching and looking at multiple companies in the DFW area, Raider Express caught my attention with it s advertising a FREE school + they pay you $1,000...
The school the company will challenge you to be the best you. No strings attached. You get out of it what you put into it. Your only limitation is what your willing to put into it.
My husband has worked for this company for over 2 years, this was his first long haul trucking job and he absolutely loves it. Most company's train you and require you to work for them afterwards, not Raider. You won't want to go anywhere else once you've gotten your CDL. The team is very attentive ...
