"I worked here for over a year but couldn't tolerate it. The company consistently pushed maximum working hours and minimal rest breaks. Communication was poor, with significant delays in receiving information. Tax returns were problematic, and pay was withheld until the next assignment. High employee turnover and strict accountability for errors were also issues. I strongly advise against working here."
"Having worked here for over seven years, I've had a consistently positive experience. The trucks are new and well-maintained, with regular fleet updates. Pay is reliable and complete, with no deductions. I highly recommend this company."
"After working here for over two years, I can confirm much of what's been said is accurate. Daily loading and unloading are common, and most 15 and 10-hour shifts are completed by Wednesday. However, punctuality is strictly enforced, with immediate calls if arrival for unloading is delayed. Routes primarily consist of domestic hauls, with no international travel."
"This company prioritizes squeezing every minute out of drivers and avoids toll roads. Drivers are often blamed for issues, and face pressure to load cargo quickly to ensure company profits and timely payments."
"Overall, this company is not recommended due to a negative experience."
"This company demands long driving days (500-700 km) with daily loading/unloading and heavy loads (25 tons). Drivers are pressured to speed, and arrival times are scrutinized. Cargo space is limited, and tools aren't allowed."
"After three months, I found this company showed no respect for drivers. The director disregarded drivers' needs, routes primarily used national roads with scarce parking, showers were infrequent, and drivers were pressured to drive for ten hours straight without time to find parking. There were issues with driver assignments, night driving, and potential placement of additional drivers without consent. Damage claims were problematic, and the director was reported to discourage drivers from leaving. Pay was unreliable, with deductions upon returning home. High turnover was observed. I do not recommend this company."
"The company operates with an intense schedule, prioritizing high work hours (90 in two weeks) and constant movement. Drivers experience rushed loading/unloading, limited rest stops, and pressure to maximize driving time. Pay varies by location and includes per diem. There's a high turnover rate and a demanding management style with questionable payment practices. It feels exploitative and lacks respect for driver well-being."
"Working for this company has been a very negative experience. The location is inconvenient, and the trucks are old. Drivers are loaded in Lithuania and unloaded in Germany, paid at a low rate (0.11 β¬/km) with weekend delays. Equipment is minimal (only gloves provided). Routes are demanding (280-700 km daily) with frequent loading/unloading and excessive hours (up to 90 hours). Drivers are expected to violate regulations and perform maintenance without compensation. Pay is minimal, with significant delays and incorrect tax refunds. The directorβs attitude is exploitative, prioritizing profit over driver well-being. Turnover is high."
