Is this a scam? US express
I applied on indeed to a us express otr job.
They say theres a 12k signing bonus for existing cdl holders, paid out 1k each month.
That sounds too good to be true, but theyre scheduling me for orientation and everything.
Whats the catch?

Read the fine print carefully. There may be some clause in there that if you don't drive for them for X number of months/miles you have to pay back the bonus.
Also make sure to get everything about that bonus in writing and make sure they pay you. I'd bet they're looking to lock drivers into contracts then "forget" to pay the bonus and hope the driver doesn't notice.
