"Constant pressure to rush, frequent stops in Tahoe, with dispatchers demanding explanations for delays. Drivers are immediately given new loads after unloading, and paid parking is impossible as they push drivers to their limits, disregarding concerns like parking difficulties in Germany. Pay is consistent at €65 per day, which is a positive. Frequent trailer transfers, sometimes with damaged trailers and no pallets. Routes are strictly national, ignoring parking restrictions. A €500 fine was unfairly levied after termination for a late unloading, despite notifying dispatch beforehand. The company's practices are increasingly resembling those of Girteka and Hegemann. Recommended only for those seeking experience before moving on."

"The company isn't what it used to be, but pays as promised, with reports processed quickly. Drivers experience pressure to rush, with occasional pauses exceeding legal limits and overtime. There are re-weighs, potential for overloading, and GPS tracking. Drivers must provide daily position reports. Minor route deviations result in deductions. Dispatchers vary in quality; some are helpful, while others are demanding. Trucks are generally good, but trailers can be problematic. Routes prioritize speed and sometimes ignore traffic signs, requiring drivers to photograph violations. Overall, it's a workable situation, but with some frustrating practices and a noticeable turnover rate."

"Based on reviews, the company seems to be run by two individuals, with one driver experiencing exploitation by the other. While one driver claims it's workable, the overall impression is negative and unreliable."
