Swift Transportation - Lancaster Terminal 3250 North Longhorn Drive, Lancaster, TX 75134

"I want to start off by saying when I started it was great i had a great mentor (Mr Allen) ,he took his time with me helped me in so many ways i wish i can still call him for advice but i lost his number but anyway he was a really good mentor then i had another lady(mentor) (i was having problems with pregnancy got off his truck and wish I didn’t lol ) but she was ok but she rushed me to plug the hose and drive i had to wait to eat because shd wanted me to eat and drive at the same time and i just couldn’t and if your a female you know if you dont eat while pregnant you get nauseous ,she had a attitude at times while 4 months pregnant at the time i was not rushing for anybody then i had another mentor he was cool but once i was done with all my drive hours i wanted to go PRACTICE backing at the terminal to finish out my backing hours didn’t plan to test but i did and passed and i guess since i didn’t drive 13 hrs as plannEd my mentor was mad im not gone say his name but i can tell, he told them he didn’t approve of the test i passed to get into my own truck (which he didn’t ) he took me off the truck right after i told him “i wasn’t driving that day i was just going to practice at the terminal”, cool but I didn’t really want to keep driving 13 hours for the 2nd or 3rd time (making PRACTICE pay and not normal pay )if I didn’t need to i heard he told them i wasnt good at all , and of course they went with whatever the mentor said told me to drive with another mentor and if they said i was good I could’ve got a truck so i did and he said i was good but STILL they didn’t let me , they said it was because i had another week of training (i think it was because the mentor told them i wasn’t ready/good ) but anyway thats when they put me with the lady , i just wish they REALLY studied the mentors they chose to be MENTORS I understand with a student they make more money but it’s ridiculous , i was there a few months then quit also they say you'll get time off you dont unless you take off , holiday, weekend , weekday , YOU WORKING lol and the day you have off you better be close to home and make it before your time run out because youll be spending it in the truck , but thats trucking life OTR but i know the recruiters lied to me about the weekend off they do good as for hotels and giving places to sleep and making sure everybody eat lunch and have snacks i can say that about this terminal But some of they mentors , dont care about nothing but extra pay , thats it but again , MR ALLEN .. GREAT MENTOR NO COMPLAINTS and you can tell he is GENUINE he had sheets that i did everyday to make SURE i knew what i was doing with the paper logs he showed me everything your supposed to have for each state , like im wayyy better at math because of him , he REALLY helps the students anything needed he will tell you he not gone sugar coat lol very thankful to have had a mentor like mr allen he taught me alot !"

"I cannot believe this company would allow an incompetent person to be in management and terminate someone who is mourning the loss of a loved one. When someone asks for time off and unexpectedly experiences a death during the same time and management refuses to take accountability for putting the time in wrong. I cannot for the life of me imagine how you sleep at night. Karma does not discriminate and when death visits your family, because it will, remember how you treated people when they were mourning. I had to listen to a so called leader tell my husband she’s going off of hearsay and had to answer to her superiors so she needed to hear both sides. When she was sent visual proof of what was said and done she never acknowledge it. The next text to follow was we have to terminate your employment. I couldn’t believe it. I’m glad my employer has more competent people in place because I would never recommend anyone to work here. No accountability and definitely no work life balance. My husband has never used sick time and is hardly at home due to your lies of saying he would be. He will have no problem finding another job because he is a great father and even better husband."

"This is my first time stopping here at Lancaster terminal. Parking was easy to find because I bobtailed in. The yard look clean and organized. Nice driver lounge but disappointment the terminal has only 3 washers and dryers for such a big place. Took me 3 hours to do 2 loads of laundry. There’s always a lot of people waiting for it. They don’t even have complimentary coffee for their drivers."

"I was told by a swift recruiter that I would be home daily on a Walmart dedicated account. And that I would get paid 300 dollars when I complete orientation. When I got to orientation one of the first things they mention is they will be going over what the recruiter told you versus what we actually can offer you. Red flag. You watch probably 4 hours of slides and 4 hours of videos on the computer. And do nothing the next day and a half. Except go to the dmv to attach your medical certificate to your license. Very boring. On the second day they called me into the room and went over the things I had left to complete before they could “hire” me. Most don’t get hired while in orientation. So while I was going over paperwork we talked about the route. They said I would be a Walmart dedicated driver. When I asked what the home time was they said we don’t know…. They don’t know. I asked what the pay was….. they didn’t know. They said I have to talk to the head guy at Walmart. Called him up turns out the schedule was home weekly and only off 34 hours for your reset. Not only did they not offer me another route during orientation. I also did not get paid after I left and I am now unable to get into contact with them. Be careful going here."
