What people are saying about sick pay at Stagecoach

  • Best thing

    I love driving the bus, the customers, but the company itself doesn’t want to look after its drivers. And that’s so sad. Because without drivers there are no buses

    Worst thing

    The way drivers are treated by top mangers. Wages should be so much more, buses should be taken better care of, breaks should be paid.

  • Best thing

    4 day weeks, left to it most of the time don’t have goals which you need to complete.

    Worst thing

    Short breaks, many busses get cut due to late running not enough time to get around, roadworks not taken into consideration. Can be very repetitive if on the same route all day.
