Pros

If you enjoy doing for others, Transdev is a wonderful job for you. Being a driver for Transdev is one of the greatest work experiences that I have ever had and by far the most fulfilling. The greatest part is that you get paid to learn safe driving skills not just for on the job purposes, but personal leisure as well.

Cons

You will experience fatigue if you are not good at managing your diet and sleep patterns. Be prepared to dedicate yourself to the minimum 13.5 hrs every day that you are on the road. The worse part is that you may have one or two not so friendly in-house experiences.

Pros

Mostly nice trainers and coworkers; great managers. They pay and train you to get a CDL B. Very tolerant of sick days off. Lots of overtime opportunity, and decent pay.

Cons

Split shifts will run you ragged. You start work around 4-5am and return 9am, then you start again around 1pm and finish at 7-8pm. You might get around 4-5 hours of sleep every work night, then they expect you to make-up the rest of the sleep between your split shifts. This is why bus drivers fall asleep and crash. A small mistake on this job can result in multiple counts of involuntary manslaughter. You deal with people of all walks of life; believe it or not, the rich and entitled are the worst. Bathroom breaks are far between; sometimes not at all.
