Find a job

A leading 401(k) plan with company match

Get a better job now and a better retirement later with a 401(k) plan (pre-tax, Roth post-tax or combination) that’s consistently a step above the competition. Join the plan right away and contribute 1-50% of your eligible pay. Schneider’s match starts after only three months (industry average is one year) and will match $.50 for each $1.00 of the first 6% of your contribution.


Truck driver health care

Schneider offers medical/prescription, dental and vision plans with optional participation and coverage available for your spouse and dependent children.

  • Medical/Prescription: Enjoy reduced premium incentives, an additional Health Reimbursement Account deposit for wellness and a low $10 copay for virtual visits.
  • Dental: Standard preventive care is covered at 100% by Schneider, and the plan includes basic and major restorative care.
  • Vision: Coverage includes company-sponsored annual eye exam with $10 copay and a materials plan with allowance for prescription glasses or contacts.
  • Flexible spending: Put aside pre-tax cash from your paycheck to pay for non-reimbursed medical, dental, vision and dependent care expenses.
  • Hospital indemnity: Get paid cash directly if you’re hospitalized with this new optional plan.

Paid time off

The longer you stay, the more paid time off you get:

  • Three days after six months.
  • Two weeks after one year.
  • Three weeks after seven years.
