Celadon Trucking Services Reviews

Cons

Keep me low milage run trips unable to make 2000 milage a week working OTR and if you never been on Canadá here you Will see and drive on Canadá freeways with french language Signs. Good luck.

Cons

young leadership also means that people aren't vacating higher level positions, thus you really have to be somewhat aggressive and ask for opportunities to prove your worthiness of any form of promotion.

Cons

Little room for advancement. Raises are very poor. Health benefits could be much better. Management is out of touch. Expectations continually grow, learn more, do more, work longer hours, etc. - but compensation does not.

Cons

Pay could be better,insurance is why to high.

Cons

Untrustworthy management. They are not honest with their drivers or with the people trying to support them. If there was a negative star I would give them I would. Pay is sub par and overall the upper management is as well.

Cons

Untrustworthy management
Will pay you a "salary" so they don't have to pay you for all the extra hours
Terribly expensive benefits that will cost you a good chuck of your paycheck
No one knows how to handle a problem/crisis
They really like to put 'bandaids' on problems instead of fixing the problem and preventing it from being a problem in the future
Turnover is so high that no one actually knows how to do the job when someone leaves
I honestly have advised people to not work here. I would not let any family or friends work here.

Cons

I rerally have not found a downside

Cons

Celadon loves hiring Directors and VP's but pay the average employee terribly. Rarely promote from within, and lots of the managers are incompetent. My manager lucked into his position and at this point I think he's still around because its too hard to fire him. No organization, no professionalism. This is a place you work for as short of time as you can until you land a better job, which is why the turnover is so high.

If you have a position here that interacts with the drivers, be prepared to have them in your face and yelling profanities at you. I cant count the number of times I had a driver yell at me, cuss at me, or get in my face. Since Celadon has an "open door" policy, drivers can come to your desk at any time. Since Celadon is "driver first," you will be the one who gets in trouble if you lose your cool with a driver who is screaming at you.

Make sure you look into the insurance before accepting any offers. When you take into account the price and quality of the insurance, it's likely you can find a better opportunity somewhere else

Cons

i have not encountered any cons so far

Cons

They preach to us about staying in communication, but don't return the effort. There are too many hands in the pot for them to be able to get anything done in a timely manner therefore, cutting into drivers clocks and pockets. They evidently have raised the pay rate, but still don't get you enough miles for it to make a difference on the paycheck. They don't care about the drivers as people, we are just a number/robot. When dealing with the office people, dispatch, csr, planners, etc, none of them know what the next one is doing so you constantly have to repeat yourself when calling in, after shift change, between departments etc. If you're broke down, plan on being down for at least a week unless you do recovery.
