Local team was the best ever!!!
Very similar to my current employer, in that the local team was amazing to work with and the Manager was amazing to work for! The downside being that we were not the central, or headquarters office, so eventually, the powers that be took over and disassembled one of the greatest operations teams in history!!!
I hated working here— I’m stuck
My manger is the evilest person on this mother planet, she makes us work constantly and I hated working here as I’m a naturally chill person. However, I just got married not long ago and I have my disabled husband to subsidize so I feel my life is trapped in this dump.
But mainly my manager is not decent. At all. After almost a year working there she still call me Ms. Storti verse Sarah, which is preferred as I’m proud of my first name I think it’s unique, fun and utterly chic. I’m just fed up now

stay far away from this evil people
This company is poorly managed, completly racists and basically if I tell you to jumb? You jumb Forget about safety.
You'll be forced to do 2 days work in 13 hours every day of every week pick up in fortmcmurray and drop off in Edmonton 5 days a week, it takes 2 hours to load and an hour to unload. Fueling, traffic, and everything else?

Hostile management and labour relations
They will micro manage you to always try and find fault with your work. Partly because some managers and safety personnel are on a power trip but also to find reasons to take away your safety bonus.
Pros
Good pay and benefits
Cons
Inconsistent work. It’s either feast or famine.

Is Indeed your favorite place to learn about companies?
Not worth the pay
I enjoyed the job, hours are kind of whacky, pay is low considering you need to be trained and qualified, not anyone can just walk in and do the job. Management at the branch was ok, higher up the food chain they say what you want to hear but dont follow through. always had excuses why we couldnt get raises.Was told it was a family oriented business....far from it. High turnover. The most enjoyable part of the job is the guys you work with and the customers were pretty good. Would be a great place to work if you were paid what you deserved, better benefits and more consistent start and finish times
Good luck
Trimac is a lot like the oil field work,
When is good is really good and when is slow take time off. Overall the company has a very good safety culture. I feel is a great company to work for.

Good for a single person
12-16 hours per day. Easy work. Long drive and lots of miles per day. Truck runs 24 hrs per day. Switch shift days and nights. Constant pressure to stay on time. You work in every weather condition imaginable.
Don't know what you need
They promote safety in the orientation. Work the legal hours of operations. But when a driver gets out on the road that goes all out the window, so to speak. It is go, go, go. Who cares about the long book and hours. Get the load there. They need to plan and communicate better with the drivers. Very stressful place to work.

Awful place to work
Poor management work u 6 days 1 day off u constantly have to watch your pay, constantly shortchanged on your pay.Fired for slightest incident despite management inability to have proper equipment available .If you’re looking for long term employment this is one place to avoid like the plague.
Pros
Money decent
Cons
Longevity dismal. Very short term opportunity
Worse run company ....
Management is all talk and no action , they safety comes first when reality is they say that to cover their *** the all mighty $ is the bottom line with no concern for employees that’s why there is such a high turn over in employees....salary is well below industry standards
Employees are treated poorly
After restructuring in (around 2015), company has a high turn over rate. Employees are not valued. There is no room for growth. There is a lot of micromanagement. Work/Life balance is not a priority for the company. Training is no longer encouraged. Overall atmosphere is stressful as job security is rather low.
No raises since 2015, which is explained as "economic conditions" by higher management.
Pros: Trimac focuses on safety. Company holds team building events. There are people who you can as for help.

Office staff
Office staff was joke. Brought down a lady that ran bulk and out her on fuel side here in regina and she ran it to ground. Didn't no what she was doing. Lost alot of good people. She lied bout lots of stuff. I got terminated after being hurt on the job. They sent her back but another guy's runs it here heard its lil better but hard to believe
At one time great place to work
Changes in management and philosophy have made these local branches poor places to work. After consulting with fellow drivers, they all agreed and very few are left there.
