Stressful work place lacking structure and effective operations
Senior Office Administrator (Current Employee), Alsip, IL –
A basic work day consist of constant overload of work for the number of supportive staff within the department. Hostile work place. The only good thing is the Company overall is great. However, this specefic division is extremely difficult to grow and advance due to the high turn-over.

Challenging job but underpaid
Dispatcher (Current Employee), Union City, CA –
A typical day at work includes answering phones, dispatching drivers, data entry. I learned new things on the computer that I didn't know before. The managers at my division are great but the co-workers are two faced. The hardest part of the job is having to deal with people who smile in your face but talk behind your back. The most enjoyable part is – more...  helping the para transit passengers because sometimes they just need some patience and are so relieved when someone helps them. – less

Avoid this slave pen
Dispatcher (Current Employee), Hyattsville –
Pros: next to a mall, and within walking distance of a metro station.
Cons: draconian rules and lack of benefits.
As a dispatcher or reservationist, you will spend more time trying to NOT get fired than any human should. Breaks are only 10 minutes, if you arrive late 2 times within your first 90 days, then you get fired.

You can't have a cell phone there, even if you just use it to check email, your schedule or just to see what time it is.

Dress code is horrible. – more...  White collared shirt with black pants. Everybody else is business casual, but you have to wear that quasi-uniform even though you don't come into visual contact with any customers.

No coffee (unless you want to catch the elevator down to the deli to pay for a cup of coffee. The break room is actually just a section of the large office without cubicles.

98% of the cubicled folk are black, and the majority of the management is white. There is very little diversity in this workplace.

There is NO sick leave until you've been there a year, at which time the federal FMLA forces the company to give you sick days. You get 14 hours of vacation for your first year. Yes, only two days of vacation. – less

Productive and Fun
Driver (Former Employee), Philadelphia –
Pros: the experience was nice
Cons: short or no breaks
The shifts were long and I dealt with many different types of people like senior citizens and disabled customers.
I learnt more about the city that I live in because my pick ups and drop offs were all over the city.
The company management was well organized and easy to understand.
My co-workers were easy to get along with and they made me feel welcomed – more...  and like I was apart of the team.
The hardest part of the job was getting used to the shifts which sometimes were very long or started at 4am.
The most enjoyable part of the job was working with the people and driving, I loved being out and about all day. – less
