Pilot Travel Centers has been a fantastic place to build my career over the past nine years. Having worked in six different departments, I've gained a broad perspective, and overall, I can confidently say it's a great company. The benefits package is excellent, and the office spaces are consistently nice. One of the standout aspects is the overall company culture, which fosters a positive and supportive environment. I especially appreciate the emphasis on giving back, as the company provides time off for volunteering, encouraging us to make a difference in our communities. Pilot also heavily invests in employee development, offering numerous educational classes to help better your career. The convenience of an on-site gym is another huge perk.

While the overarching company culture is strong, it's important to note that the culture can differ greatly from department to department. Some areas are led by long-tenured individuals who may be stuck in their ways and resistant to change, which can sometimes hinder progress. In contrast, other departments are highly innovative and constantly seeking the next best thing, creating a dynamic and forward-thinking atmosphere. I've been impressed with the new executive leadership team so far. However, I have noticed and heard from others that work-life balance has suffered a bit since their arrival. This is an area that could benefit from more attention to ensure employees don't experience burnout.

Good benefits, hours and promotes family time

Not enough pay for the job, good ole boy system, unrealistic expectations

Good benefits and such, and good pay.

No cons that I can think of that arent store specific, as I wasn't an employee for very long.

Benefits are good and gas discount

Will short staff you all the time. Will change your schedule without talking to you first doesn't matter if you have kids to take care of. Gm won't fix any issues. Have a driver yelling at you but gm will bend over backwards to make them happy instead of backing up you. If you want to advance you won't it will be dangled in your face to work harder for them to hire someone else outside the company

Decent pay, benefits, and work-life balance

Middle management talks the talk but does not walk the walk

Weekly pay, benefits, and points that you can get gift cards with.

Work you til death, no work life balance, attendance policy terrible (don't accept doctor note for legitimate reasons like flu), and management issues like most other places, high turnover rate, communication lacking, and expectations unrealistic sometimes., do not go for manager if you want to have a life outside of work.

Great benefits, awesome pay, some really wonderful coworkers and management

Long hours, high turnover, rough customer base

Good pay and good benefits.

Upper management was not willing to help with any issues. Only saw them occasionally. Would go around to other locations and tell other managers who they planned on firing.
