Friendly but has gone down hill since they were bought. Lots of sitting, poor planning. Have worked there for 12 years but may have to leave. Their new driver program is good as it gets people. with limited experience in the door.

Was a shunter, team driver and LCV driver

Driver – LCV (Ancien employé) - Manitoba - 19 mai 2023

This company is what you make of it. There are lots of good runs there are lots of not so great runs just like anywhere else. Worked on nights so generally dealt with people who knew who you were. That may not be the case working days.A lot of ongoing training and online/yearly review courses ect. For a new driver I would say that they will teach you a lot of things and the proper way to do it. I was making 80k/yr working 4 days a week on LCV. This was including the night and weekend bonuses they offer. They also have a safety bonus.

Points positifs

Decent home time if you get a scheduled run. monetary bonus structure.

Points négatifs

It is still a trucking job. If you hate the job itself no company will be the right fit.

Low pay, low quality

Forklift Driver (Ancien employé) - Mississauga, ON - 7 mai 2023

Place could be better but too cheap to pay good wages. Too many new people being brought in the revolving door with no training or idea how to do their job. Run the other way, don't walk!

Points positifs

Free lunch once in a while

Points négatifs

Horrible management, that is always micro managing. Even when they have no clue about what they're doing.

Fast - Paced Fun!

Customer Service Representative (Employé actuel) - Winnipeg, MB - 21 avril 2023

At Bison Transport - there is a lot of things to love about this work place. Everyone is always so friendly and has smiling faces. Despite how busy people may be, there is always time to take small breaks to chat with friends/co-workers to build relationships/friendships within the company. Lots of activates (spirit week type, "Friday fun activity", free summer lunches") are a good incentive on keeping everyone feeling appreciated and heard. Although there is lots of work to be done in the transport field - Bison Never fails to show threes always time for a bit of fun!

Points positifs

Friendly people, free lunches (occasionally)

Culture and Growth

Manager (Employé actuel) - Calgary - 21 avril 2023

I enjoy working for a company that is constantly looking to be better. Bison continues to teach, develop and give staff the ability to grow. We test and adopt new technology's both in the office and on the equipment on the road. In a very dynamic, fast paced, demanding industry, Bison works to make the job life better. Providing weekly lunches through the summer, recognition programs, awards dinners, fun holiday breakfasts like St Patricks day, team building nights are enjoyable and bring the staff together.

Points positifs

Diversity, Culture, Growth
