Low pay for flatbedder
Truck Driver - Class 1 (Former Employee) - Edmonton, AB - 8 November 2023
I took a job with deckx when the patch got slow, was paid 48cpm and was also driving from Montreal to Vancouver, was alot of payroll mistakes that I had to always question the head office about and when my 90 day probation period was up they let me go. Booking time off there is like pulling teeth and no guarantee that you'll get it off regardless of what's going on in your personal life
Pros
Nice truck
Cons
Pay, management, dispatcher

Transx being a big company , they do have lots of work, but how the company treats there driver is pretty bad. you are restricted to 44 hours only No overtime is allowed they are very strict, and working in the city you have to use ELD

Great co-workers/management and fair pay
Diesel Technician (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 17 August 2023
Enjoyed my 3 years of employment working in the shop, co-workers and other mechanics are very friendly and willing to give you a hand whenever needed. Management was never to be feared of and would always work with you as long as you had a good work ethic and attitude. Pay was fair, and raises were given throughout my employment. Shift schedules allowed for a great home/ work balance as you had a minimum of 3-4 days off a week depending on which shift you were on.

Amazing place to work

This is a good place to work and grow. Culture is very good and management is also good. I learned a lot from this place which helped me in my carrier.

Avoid the stress, Cooperate Thugs
Owner/Operator (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 22 May 2023
They do everything possible to make sure that Owner op doesn’t make enough money to feel like a winner. Their philosophy is; if you keep him hungry you keep him on the road pushing hard. If you don’t mind chasing your own financial tail then by all means. By the time you make truck payments and take your taxes out you might as well be working at a fast food joint. It is Not worth the risk of driving a 80,000lbs vehicle though Canada and the USA.

Good place to learn
AR (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 10 May 2023
Good place to learn about trucking and the account Receivable job. Need better training. Worked with car, cash apps and different terminals and customers to collect on past due

It’s alright
Yard Labourer (Former Employee) - Mississauga, ON - 29 April 2023
Office workers at night were okay when there were any, though morning and day shift were rude and unprofessional beyond reason, speaking condescendingly towards drivers instead of simply answering their questions And over all making the work environment a very volatile place

Gave a 1 because minus 100 wasn't avail
Service writer (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 28 March 2023
The culture is rotten to the core Dispatch is volitile, who don't know their jobs and burn over anyone they can, and that's taught by management. The employees and drivers core are great folks, middle management and upper management don't care, don't support, and nurture churn and burn attitude My manager in particular burned me out of holiday money purely because of his own failure, and HR was no help. My money is still in their pockets Overall the worst place to work for in Canada 🇨🇦
Pros
Employees
Cons
Culture management

An unhappy and stressful place with poor management
Shunt Driver (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 23 March 2023
The warehouse in Calgary has the worst possible manager you could imagine. It is a dirty and dusty place. The pay is poor. City O/O's are paid poorly. Driver's had complained about not being paid. Very little room for advancement. Very little overtime. Poor culture.
Pros
Fairly easy work
Cons
Horrific management

It is a good company, but, it could be better
Long Haul Truck Driver (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 23 February 2023
There is room for improvement in the: Pay structure. Hiring practice. Loads assignment. Trucks selection. I worked for Transx for 15 years until retirement. I can recommend it to any driver who want to have a career in moving refrigerated goods.

Terrible place to work
Office Administrator (Current Employee) - Mississauga, ON - 21 May 2022
Poor management, they don't care about employees who do the job well. High stress environment. Some coworkers know what they're doing, others make working there a nightmare because they don't know what they're doing. They put the work of 3 people onto one person. No opportunity to move up.
Pros
It pays the bills
Cons
Management doesn't care, poor work/life balance, does not pay a living wage

Good for beginners
Long Haul Truck Driver (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 19 May 2022
There could be a lot of unpaid waiting depends on where you go. Used to be a very good company but new dispatch is not very good at planning loads . And if there's any waiting time , you might get paid some of that after so many phone calls and emails.
Pros
Nice Peterbilt 579 trucks
Cons
Dispatchers lie a lot and lots of unpaid waiting time.

Lots of work...good equipment
Truck Driver - Class 1 (Former Employee) - New Westminster, BC - 5 May 2022
As a driving job for a big company it was alright. All driving jobs for these companies are essentially the same. Nothing about company culture stands out but the dispatchers on the West Coast were amazing. Some if the safety requests Going into terminals were a bit much but all part if the job.

Foot in the door for Transportation
Customer Service Representative (Current Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 3 April 2022
Very fast paced, independent work style. Easy to get a job here as they are always hiring due to high turn over rate. Management tries, however everyone is over worked due to under staffing. Participating in the company football pool, or Friday golf days is a great way to get ahead. However, hard work and hand raising are rewarded with more of the same work, no additional pay or advancement. No clear employment trajectories for long term advancement. Major pay discrepancy between staff in the same positions, same general experience. Pay scale mostly depends on your negotiations on hire. All major management positions outside of HR are extremely male heavy, with women mostly contained to administrative and entry level roles. Almost all management positions are filling through internal promotion. Great place for a select few people, and a great place to start out before moving on to bigger and better things if you are just trying to get your foot in the door for transportation
