Hard to get good miles
Long Haul Truck Driver (Employé actuel) - Dorval, QC - 6 juillet 2023
Avis en vedette
L'avis le plus utile, sélectionné par IndeedBeen there for almost a year now, going away 4-6 weeks at a time, never late, always keep them updated on my eta, gentle on gas, no safety issues, no violation.Had some 3000+miles/week, but their logistics is inefficient, they'll end your day and next morning they send you to one of their yard to pu a trl that was there since 2 days. They're constantly training new driver and all good drivers struggle to get miles. It's a rookie mill and they want it to stay this way so it's cheap drivers. Averaging 2000-2500$/week

Every thing is good but not few
City & Long Haul Driver (Ancien employé) - Abbotsford, BC - 20 mars 2022
Equipment is too old, routes are not good and fuel solutions need improvement not in favour of driver sleep or rest area and shower. They could give at least 5-7 fuel solutions for trips where ever drivers want to fill

It's a joke company
Long Haul Truck Driver (Employé actuel) - Cambridge, ON - 17 février 2021
A company that brought a group of Polish drivers to work, offering us great earnings and brand new equipment. Upon arrival, the equipment was in a tragic condition, it was well over 4 years old and over 800k km traveled. For Flat bet divisions we are paid terribly. The immigration office gave us work visas so we could change the employer. The terms of the contract were largely broken by the company.
Points positifs
good dispatchers
Points négatifs
managment, work ethic, trucks, pay

A good company for new drivers
Class 1 Professional Driver - Long Haul (Ancien employé) - Abbotsford, BC - 19 janvier 2021
I started my professional driver career with challenger. It’s a good place to start and their loads are predictable in short order. I’ve driven for both Cambridge and Abbotsford terminals. Don’t be fooled , unless you want drive team; this is only a regional carrier. Planning and dispatch are the weak link here, you’re generally sitting and waiting for your back haul or next load. The Abbottsford yard is the hand me down location for Tractors so expect a 5 to 6 year old miled out bottom of the line Volvo 670 or freight shaker. Above Average safety, but expect your “screw up” to be displayed at terminal for everyone to see on the “ Wall of Shame”. The photos stay up until the next “Wall of Shamer”. Which can be up to a month. Relax, your truck number is blocked out but everyone knows it’s you! Driver retention is very low.... less than a year and a half and if you keep your resume up to date you will have recruiters contacting you after six months. Maintenance does their best to keep these tractors in as good condition as they can for the age the tractors. If they paid 10 to 15 cents a mile more and got new tractors, I’d still be there. Sadly, they don’t and they won’t. Get your primary experience and bolt.
Points positifs
Safe. Good maintenance department flexible availability time
Points négatifs
Regional, low miles, low pay

Long Haul Driver
Long Haul Truck Driver (Employé actuel) - Abbotsford, BC - 22 février 2020
I worked in the oil patch for many years never any appreciation for working hard in all extremely cold and hot weather.
I come to Challenger and been here almost 11 months and have never looked back. Great office staff in both East and West. Their number one priority is our safety. This company wants you to make as much money as you can but reminding you not to put your family second.

Good Trucking Company
Long Haul Truck Driver (Ancien employé) - Abbotsford, BC - 19 juillet 2018
If you're looking for positive work environment, new equipment, friendly and helpful dispatchers then this is the company for you. If you're looking to make money, then it isn't. Good if you want a relatively easy going job, and not worried about money too much.
Points positifs
New equipment, good pay package option for on road break downs
Points négatifs
Low pay

Inconsistant and difficult
Commercial Driver Long Haul (Employé actuel) - Abbotsford, BC - 2 mai 2017
I've found through my employment with this company that there is a high staff turnover. The head office branches have little to no communication with each other and the employees suffer and are blamed for the mistakes made from lack of communication from the offices.

Disorganized and not driver friendly.
Long Haul Driver/Mountain driving (Ancien employé) - Cambridge, ON - 15 avril 2017
Challenger is a place where new graduates can do their time and gain experience,it won't be easy but Challenger prefers new drivers as they don't have to pay them much!
This is not a place for any experience driver, they don't pay enough and you won't get treated right. Most if not all dispatchers lie to the drivers and to the customers trying to look good and making the drivers look bad. Whenever you have an issue with dispatch you are sent to safety where they tell you to humour dispatch, management only cares about the office personnel. To them drivers are a dime a dozen and you will be treated as such. If you can help it please don't work for Challenger or you will regret it!
Have a good day and good luck on your job search.
Points positifs
They hire anyone
Points négatifs
They don't care about the drivers
