Forklift Operator in Surrey, BC
on 10 April 2023
Co-workers are amazing! Really love to work there. Moreover, management helps with personal growth.
Working environment is good. I got support from the management for personal growth and always felt involved in all of the company conversations. It gets a bit hard when it is super busy but overall, a good experience.
Truck Driver - Class 1 in Calgary

Worst place I've ever worked for.
Unless you have any agreements in writing they will change you job description and role at anytime with no notice. They don't care about their employees and their only concern is profit margins.
Supervisor in Surrey, BC
on 28 February 2023
Fast paced and fun
Blue collar workplace with a good culture and progressive management. But...it is a trucking company so there are no nap pods or 4 day work weeks. It's very fast paced and hard work, the freight never stops
Administrative Assistant in Edmonton, AB
on 7 February 2023
the terminal manager was very easy to approach with any concerns or difficulties
the experience was great, although the pay was very minimal and I worked with someone who was reluctant to show me anything for fear of me taking their job. What they didn't realize was that I was more interested in the managers position.
