Best thing
Good amount of time off. Holidays aren't too difficult to get off but management can be lacking understanding and very bulldogish.
Worst thing
Often left alone to work with no support, management don't answer the phone all the time when needed, no proper training and no real guidance plus a lack of help when things go wrong and you need some assistance.

Best thing
Left alone in the road to do my job, not miethered like other transport companies. Easy work with pre loaded trailers from either Cannock or Doncaster for RDC deliveries mainly.
Worst thing
Have to chase office up on things like uniform, gate pass etc, always have to do the leg work to get progression of things done within the company.
Paper pay slips, every month or so backdated from previous weeks, be easier having online pay slips like most other companies.Great Bear Distribution Lgv c+e driver, June 2020
