Both gross pay options, you’ll also have the opportunity to earn bonuses.

Sign-on bonuses are $5,000 for teams and $2,500 for solo truck drivers. Recruiters are always available to answer your questions, but as an owner operator, you’ll be able to enjoy the following incentives:

The average salary for an owner operator was $175,198 per year. Advertisements from the company’s job openings claim that solo drivers earn $1.18 per mile, while team drivers earn $1.31 per mile.

Potential is obviously much higher for teams.

If you look at independent contractor information, you’ll see that the average salary is $176,844, but this goes all the way up to $419,000 at the maximum. Of course, the high end would be for a very optimal team driver situation.  As always, we focus on the median rate to give you a realistic idea of what type of numbers you can expect.

Ceva Logistics Reviews

When you start looking at the reviews from drivers, you’ll find a lot of different opinions:

• Excellent pay and benefits
• Equipment is newer, and there is always steady work available
• Management does change often, so this takes some time to get used to at first
• Paid time off is available
• Some areas had (not sure about the current situation) very few major contracts
• Unionized, so drivers do have more job security than in most trucking outfits
• Options to work 4, 10-hour shifts are available
• Staff seems to be a great perk for many of the terminals

We’re seeing some issues with supervision and management. There are complaints that management could be better, and bosses seem to be in and out of the office a lot. Pay seems to be subjective, with a lot of people suggestions that the compensation is too low.

Room for advancement is very limited, too – it’s common in the trucking industry.

Overall Ceva Logistics seems like a solid option for anyone in the trucking industry. While pay rate is below the industry average for many positions, the company is unionized and drivers will have more protections as a result. Benefits are also exceptional, and there are always opportunities in the company, whether it’s driving a tanker, a local or regional position or teaming up as a team driver.
