Job Description

Werner Enterprises is a leading transportation and logistics company dedicated to providing exceptional truck-driving opportunities across the United States. Founded by a driver for drivers, Werner has built its reputation on a deep commitment to treating every truck driver with care, dignity, and respect. This commitment underscores the company’s dedication to its workforce, recognizing truck drivers as the backbone of both the company and the nation’s supply chain. Over the years, Werner has developed versatile career options for solo and team CDL-A drivers, featuring multiple routes, home time packages, and competitive pay scales tailored to fit diverse lifestyles and financial goals. With a focus on safety, innovation, and driver satisfaction, Werner combines state-of-the-art technology and equipment with strong support systems such as the Career Track program, designed to help drivers hone their skills under the mentorship of experienced Driver Leaders.

Werner is currently hiring solo and team CDL-A drivers interested in joining a dynamic and supportive company that offers industry-leading benefits and earning potential. Team drivers at Werner earn between $55,000 and $85,000+ annually with the benefit of team-friendly equipment packages and a specialized Team Driver Matching Program. This program matches drivers based on gender, veteran status, and other personal preferences, ensuring the best fit for team dynamics. Nearly 90 percent of trips for teams are drop and hook for expedited freight, complemented by priority load assignments. Solo drivers enjoy competitive pay, with more than half making over $75,000 annually and top performers earning between $90,000 and $100,000 on dedicated routes. They also benefit from guaranteed weekly pay on select accounts and weekly or better home time in 80 percent of cases.

Werner's Team Elite Division offers even more lucrative opportunities, with team drivers earning between $90,000 and $110,000 annually, flexible three weeks on, three days home schedules, priority truck assignments, and a requirement of at least nine months of team driving experience. Werner caters to drivers at all experience levels, including recent graduates, through comprehensive programs and a wide selection of over 250 home time and pay packages, ensuring that each driver can find a career path that meets their personal and professional needs. Beyond excellent pay and schedules, Werner offers advanced technology such as telematics devices, collision mitigation technology, and 100 percent trailer tracking, enhancing safety and efficiency on the road.

With a culture that values military veterans—offering programs like military skills test waivers, an Elite Veteran Driver Program, and being recognized as a top employer for veterans—Werner provides an inclusive and supportive work environment. The benefit packages are robust and include health, dental, and vision insurance, a 401(k) plan with company match, paid tolls and fuel cards, company-paid sick leave, life and disability insurance, tuition reimbursement of up to $15,000, and various health programs. Drivers also enjoy access to the Driver Portal and app for easy communication and support.
