Pros

My co-workers were great people but the work environment was awful.

Cons

Direct management were disengaged, unsupportive, unreliable, inexperienced. They were overworked, stressed and disenchanted. We all knew it and could sense how disingenuous their platitudes are in meetings. It's not about what managers say. It is about what the managers do for staffing and how much flexibility they get from their managers.

Decent Pay

Pros

Very nice office staff. Decent starting pay. Consistent work.

Cons

Really late to early hours. 8 hours minimum between shifts. Can take years to get a schedule that even comes remotely close to a life/work balance. RTD rules the show to too high of a degree.

Pros

- Great job if you like speaking to people and enjoy being out and about. - Shift work, some like it some don’t. - Nice routes - Plenty of overtime as they are short staffed

Cons

- Unable to pay wages on time, with many colleagues having the same issues. I’m still waiting for my final wage and I left the company 2 months ago. No support from management or HR. - Buses often break down, with most having warning lights on the dash. Even worse in summer. - VERY low morale within the team with a high turnover of staff. - No exit interview. - Upper management don’t listen to driver feedback, when they come to “speak to us” they spend the time at the depot when all the drivers are in the bus station. - Often late finishing due to the spare drivers having to cover shifts instead of bringing drivers back to the depot after they’ve finished.

Pros

the overall job is chill. its a great experience working with Waymo directly and contributing to the self driving project. Transdev is the problem. The pay, once youre able to reach the cap in the pay band is great.

Cons

Upper management will abruptly change policies without notifying staff, and blame you for not knowing about the change. Management prioritizes metrics over safety. setting unrealistic goals, forcing drivers to cut corners. Zero growth opportunities, SF location has been in a hiring freeze since 2022. HR is retaliatory, and prefers to take a wait and see approach, for example, I was being threatened for my sexuality, and HR chose to do nothing about the issue.
