Challenging work with employee appreciation

Management team works hard to ensure that their teams feel appreciated. They devote many hours to plan events multiple times per year for employee appreciation. They have an open door policy and support their team members is difficult work times and personal times as well.

Pros

Supportive management team

Heavy work loads

Worst place to work.

Owner/Operator (Former Employee) – Brampton, ON – 5 January 2019

Very rude management. No respect and appreciation for truck drivers. Very unorganized company. It's all about luck here. Sometimes you hardly make minimum money to cover cost. Mostly people come and quit within a week. There's 2 hour wait in the morning and 2 hours wait in the evening to offload. It's so frustrating everyday you given wrong addresses for delivery, and they least care what you have to go through everyday.

bad culture of favouritism politics

Company Driver (Former Employee) – Brampton, ON – 29 July 2018

I worked in 2012 and I still run into owner operators who feed me with the on goings, while then you are paid by the load and you may be dispatched to haul ONE SINGLE SKID to Hamilton ON, and at the end of the week you make only $1,000 for the Owner Operator and as a Company Driver I make 25%, the Dispatcher play Lord and favour those that kiss their a### or those that can pull strings to hurt them.
You will sit at a location for days without pay; If you like to kiss a### and play puppy tricks for the Dispatchers just to make enough to buy groceries at the end of the month, you are welcome to stick your head in to Day & Ross, otherwise run for hills.

Pros

no incentives, no growth

Cons

long wait to load or unload, management is a joke, lack of professionalism

Ok but not the best

Shipper receiver (Current Employee) – Surrey, BC – 2 May 2018

started off good but then went downhill after the change in management. If your looking for a work place were the employees are valued then this isn't the one. negative reinforcement seems to be the theme around here. If you do not mind being manipulated with false promises and threats then give it a shot. The supervisors and workers are all friendly and do a great job. Warehouse is to small and overstocked making for an extremely unsafe and high stress environment. They pay you weekly.

Pros

paid weekly

Cons

poor managemnt

Not what I expected

az driver certified lcv driver w/ 40 plus years (Former Employee) – mississauga road – 1 May 2018

This is a over bill, company, in other words, not do a good job company, be as slow as possible to over bill contracts. Worked like always did n was punished, for being too efficient, bumped off good contract to be on garbage. My neighbor, was former president, and he left, says a lot. If your into working or should I say sleeping a lot, and don't mind doing 60 hrs a week at less pay than anyone else, this is the job for you. And drive garbage trucks!

Pros

nothing

Cons

junk trucks

Horrible place to work

Sales Representative (Former Employee) – Calgary, AB – 18 January 2018

Company to too top heavy with management. Never happy they always want more more more. Training was dependent on your coworkers to provide and they are actually your competition for the most part so obviously bare minimum of training provided. You had to know how to work the system to your advantage or be the bosses "favorite" to be successful which was difficult to do with the poor training provided. Systems and processes were ridiculously repetitive and unnecessary.
Micro managed to death. Too many others allowed to encroach on your territory making success almost impossible. Think twice before you apply!!!

Pros

Pension

Cons

Everything else

poorly organized and full of workplace Mistreatment

Spot Quoter (Former Employee) – Grand Falls, NB – 14 January 2018

This company is extremely disorganized in all departments.
The management team is what needs to change. Lying and turning employees against each other for entrainment purposes will not make your team thrive and be successful.
They will tell you to your face that you are doing well-but will belittle and destroy your work ethic behind your back. You exhaust yourself to do a high intensity job to barely get over minimum wage, or a simple thank you.
Favoritism was also common. There was nobody to turn to for advice or have in your corner if something was wrong.
Go elsewhere, honestly you’ll be much more appreciated.
This company could potentially thrive, but a desperate need in management and supervisors needs to happen.

Cons

POOR management
