BC Transit Employee Review
Your show once you are on driving seat - make it or break it
Operator (Current Employee) - Victoria, BC - 28 July 2023
Happy to serve community, with okay pay and great benefits. Some days are odd, like at any other job. But majorly you yourself make your day good or bad, based on your actions or reactions. A lot of choices are based on seniority, which you can feel badly, during your starting months. Very responsive and supportive on road support, in case of trouble. Once you are home, you are home.
Pros
Free bus rides, new friends
Cons
You will have to deal with some great variety of people on the road

Operator (Former Employee) - Victoria, BC - 7 May 2023
Worked there for several years. Had excellent safety and attendance record. No recognition from employer - feedback solely based on customer complaints. Everything goes on your permanent record, whether or not it has been validated.

Terrible management
Both union and management are terrible. If you're ok with crazy hours for a job you won't feel appreciated then go for it. I don't recommend working here
