Pros

Your fellow attendants are good people and make the job tolerable

Cons

During training, I was informed there could be opportunities for quick advancement, but that did not reflect my personal experience. In Jacksonville, the 90-day probationary period is very strict. Even with a doctor’s note for illness, any absence resulted in attendance points and affected eligibility for promotions for several months. Communication with HR often took several days, and the responses I received did not give me confidence that concerns would be resolved. The role also differed from my expectations. I was hired as an Autonomous Vehicle Specialist but the position was classified as Shuttle Attendant. While listed as a full time job the schedule was not set up to receive 40 hours. I was also required to use my personal phone to complete job tasks, including downloading and utilizing company applications, but no reimbursement was provided for this required use. Parking options were limited with the closest guaranteed parking located about three blocks from the site. From my perspective, performance metrics were prioritized more than employee safety. Although daily shift review forms were submitted, I did not often see follow-up on the issues raised. Overall, based on my experience, I did not find the site well-organized or supportive of career growth.

Pros

Pay is decent, plenty of opportunity for over time. Management is decent most of the time. Opportunities for advancement and to work at other sights when work is down

Cons

University holidays, breaks, and summer semester create a lot of financial hardships because those days are unpaid. After a year you get a week of PTO. No sick leave. They have a very strict point system. If you call out or leave early you lose points. 2 points per call out. They do not accept doctors notes. If you miss 5 days you're out of a job. The union helps but they have been more focused on pay increases when their is so much wrong. You are not only monitored by AI on the bus along with cameras but also have supervisors onsight that heavily enforce protocol in a way that makes the job highly stressful. You get pulled to the carpet over the most minor stuff. All of this has been from my perspective as driver. Their are better places out there in the industry but for this area you feel the safest here. If you can stomach all of this then try to advance as soon as you can. It gets much more flexible once you are in the office or become a supervisor.

Pros

The opportunity to help your fellow man by providing stellar service with a heart to the population we serve.

Cons

This company does NOT seem to appreciate its' drivers. Drivers are the backbone of this organization yet are treated as expendible. Long shifts, rigid schedules plus mandatory overtime has created a revolving door and a steady stream of new hires. More importantly, this places the population we serve at tremendous risk!!!! NO work life balance at all!!!
