Transdev reviews about "pay"

would not recommend because the pay isn't worth it

13 hour spreads (time at work) for 9 hours pay, six days a week, and you're only day off expected to come in for monthly safety meetings. No time for family, doctor's appointments; extreme fatigue with high rist of falling asleep and having an accident. Senior drivers scared to protest conditions, therefore Union doesn't stand strong against company abuse of mandatory overtime.

Low pay, crappy benefits and mandatory 6 day work week.

some employees have chips on their shoulders from the way life has treated them, feet and calfs hurt for standing for 8 hours a day

Years ago everyone was on the same level. There were no supervisors at all. Transdev came in and ruined the environment. Supervisors got promoted and got a magical air about them not because they knew any more about operators jobs but because they got to hang out with Alphabet employees. Wow! Abusive insanity, no one will have your back when it matters. Management is completely fake. They hired unqualified instagram "influencers" for reasons you can only imagine. Phony terrifying place where they laugh at how unqualified they are while wrecking you.

After you pass the initial training, the first year or more can be lonely with a majority of single-driver assignments. When you have passengers, you have to turn off your speaker, and the passenger might not talk to you (because it is a simulated driverless experience), so that’s worse than Uber driving where you can initiate conversations if your passengers want to chat and you have more ability to play music, etc. The entry Autonomous Specialist role has a high turnover rate. While it is easy to get hired it is also very easy be exited for policy violations such as touching a mobile device when the car is not in park. There's also a merit point system so if you do get penalty points, you won't get the pay bumps and won't get interviews for promotions. Not so easy to get the points back either, slowing your career path. There are multiple shifts running 24/7 and when you're first hired, you might end up in a shift that conflicts with your normal sleeping hours. There is no clear path for being hired into a "white badge" (direct employee) position at Waymo or Google, it has happened to some employees of Google's vendors, but it is not a common thing.

-schedule changes every couple of weeks -management do things based off feelings -no real logical thinking -not enough pay -very stressful

Terrible management. Lots of favoritism and discrimination, singling out people. It's not what you know but who you know culture.

Terrible chain of command, favoritism,
