Pros

Transdev has been a wonderful learning experience. The supervisors and management team would answer all questions and they supported their staff.

Cons

Once we had a GM that knew the taxi business we had very little problems.

Pros

Reasonable pay and generous benefits. Lots of overtime.

Cons

This is micromanagement at its best! They will find any reason to fire you and in some cases make up a reason. Poor communication among the management and supervisory team. Terrible training. The training is designed to make you fail, hence, making it easy to terminate you. This comment applies specifically to the Chula Vista, CA location, which operates bus routes under contract with the San Diego's Metropolitan Transit Systems......oh, and before I forget.....corrupt organization with the union (Teamsters 683). They have fired 5 supervisors and managers for embezzling funds from the company in the past 3 years. [THIS ONE IS TRUE, YOU WILL HAVE BETTER CHANCES AT A PROMOTION OR JOB SECURITY IF YOU BUY SOME KNEEPADS]

Pros

I really enjoy the people I work with; the operators are great and my supervisor is awesome. The corporate culture is very strong, and the opportunities for training are endless. This company hires primarily from within, so there are excellent opportunities for advancement and inter-department/inter-location transfer. They are also the highest paying contractor in the area. Supervisors are empowered to structure their shift and run the operation as they see fit within the standard operating procedures. The equipment is in reasonably good shape. Work-life balance opportunities are awesome for this position.

Cons

Management seems distant, hard to reach and harder to get time with. I also question their subject matter expertise. It's tough to implement change and improvement initiatives here because we operate very close to our budget limitations. We don't do a lot of team building activities here which I think hurts corporate performance. Corporate reps from the USA and France are often applying pressure to reduce expenses, even at the cost of negatively affecting service performance. The pay is real good, but not great. This isn't exactly a con, but it's really hard to retain good people with an abundance of higher paying government jobs available in the area.
