"This company is not recommended for drivers who value their time and professional respect."
"The driver increased their rating to a 5-star level. They appreciate the flexible schedule, ability to control their workload, comfortable home time, and a free hostel with amenities. Payment is reliable, and they drive on paid autobahns with no delays."
"Drivers report inconsistent treatment and significant wait times for assignments, sometimes up to two weeks. Pay varies considerably, generally around 200 zl per day, with occasional bonuses for burnout, breakdowns, or tire repairs. Dispatching can assign routes that are difficult and stressful. While housing is provided and a work invitation is offered, there are issues with communication and unexpected expenses like internet costs for navigation."
"I've worked here for two years and appreciate that they trained me from the ground up. Initially, pay was €40/day, then increased to €50/day, without setup fees. The trucks are a mix of older and newer models. We primarily haul loads between Germany, France, and Italy, and salaries are paid in cash. While there were initial issues with load securing, and some colleagues have faced penalties, it's a good starting point for novice drivers."
"Cadence hired me without prior experience, which was helpful. The company provides basic living facilities including a shared kitchen, bathroom, and laundry. However, the trucks are old and often in poor condition, and the trailers are frequently damaged. Thorough inspection upon pickup is crucial, as mechanics may downplay issues. Payment details were previously mentioned in another review."
"I would not recommend working at Edmar. I lost 1000 euros and was abruptly evicted from the company-provided hostel at 7 PM, with threats of police involvement if I refused to leave."
"I quickly lost the desire to work here due to deductions, meal allowances, and poor vehicle assignments. The company seems to function primarily as a training center, and driver turnover is high, with significant wait times for equipment. I would not recommend it."
