"I've been very satisfied working here for nearly a year. The trucks are modern, drivers are well-supported, and work involves line haul with no need for loading or securing cargo. Pay is reliable and on time, with plenty of opportunities for team driving."

"This company is generally decent, especially for new drivers. They handle residency permits and paperwork well, though communication can be challenging. Maintenance is handled promptly. Routes primarily involve transfers between Lithuania, Poland, and Europe, with occasional stops in France. Salaries are paid reliably, and independent uploads are compensated after negotiation. The company offers amenities like a hotel, warehouse, and parking. While some managers are better than others, and there are occasional issues with colleagues, the overall experience is positive if you're resourceful and communicative. The driver ultimately left due to family circumstances but is considering returning."

"This company is extremely unreliable. Pay is frequently reduced without justification, sometimes with discrepancies of 50-100€. Salary payments are inconsistent and poorly managed, with a lack of knowledge regarding international payments. Communication with management is ineffective, with issues often ignored. The work environment resembles a chaotic collective farm, despite claims to the contrary. The company deletes negative feedback and blocks employees. Overall, not recommended for experienced drivers."

"Working at Cargo company for three months has been disappointing. The pay is only 75 euros per day, which is far too low considering the workload and varied routes through Switzerland. Trucks are old and poorly maintained, with high mileage and visible wear. Salary payments are slow, like in the old Soviet system. The logistics of getting to work involve multiple bus transfers. I do not recommend this company."

"This is a good company with helpful guidance. The only drawback is the commute to personal transportation, but there are many options available. I'm not currently employed there, but would consider returning if an opportunity arose in Europe."

"The pay has significantly decreased, now at 75%, which is far below the current standard of 83-85%. The Polish park is closed, mirroring issues seen with Girteka. The company's quality has declined considerably, and it's no longer recommended."

"I've been with the company for nearly a year and overall, I'm satisfied. Communication about work assignments is clear, and they consistently honor agreed-upon terms and pay on time. Management treats drivers well. While there was an issue with deliveries in Europe, the bonus system is appreciated. I did experience some periods with up to 95 hours of work twice during the year."

"The pay is acknowledged as an issue, and drivers are frequently pressured to violate regulations, working excessive hours and facing unpredictable schedules with long waits. Truck replacements are common, and the management's attitude is described as exceptionally poor. While not the worst, the company is heading in that direction. It's potentially suitable for inexperienced drivers seeking internship."

"The company operates like a traditional collective, offering reliable and timely pay. They have a convenient office with amenities like a hotel and warehouse, and maintain a modern fleet of vehicles. They also have a service network across Europe. However, some routes involve demanding tasks like ADR transport and pallet handling in Switzerland."

"This company is a disaster. Expect to work excessive hours (often over 95), primarily national routes with constant work and inadequate rest stops. Pay is frequently delayed, ADR rates are unfairly low, and drivers are often responsible for loading and unloading without compensation. Routes are undesirable and stressful, with poor gas station locations. It's significantly worse than even Girteka."

"Since new management took over, the company has become unreliable. Drivers report unpaid salaries, often citing fuel shortages as the reason. There's also intimidation and threats. One driver described needing to pay a monthly fee for timely payments, otherwise they're left without funds."

"This company is generally adequate. While some report issues like bribes and deductions, my experience has been positive – I've never had any deductions or problems. The trucks are relatively new (Euro 6, under 3 years old), but require care to avoid maintenance charges. Pay is daily and there are no performance quotas. There's a high turnover rate, but it's worth trying."

"The company's advertising is misleading. Drivers experienced a significant pay discrepancy after initial conversations, with reduced rates and unexpected fees for paperwork. A probationary period with low pay was also mentioned, suggesting deceptive practices."
