Challenger Motor Freight Inc. - Avis

You would think going into a great managed company with an owner that build something from nothing felt more in tune with his core base of the business. Yes the drivers. Somewhere along the path of success the company went from driver friendly to total ridiculous. The review process sucks the life out of the drivers sails, the culture of superiority is ingrained in wasteful technical BS,

They look out for their own

Driver Recruiter (Ancien employé) - Mississauga, ON - 5 février 2020

Challenger, on the outside looking in is great but when you start working there, it is horrible. Except for maybe 2 people, everyone else is difficult to work with.

Good place to work

TRUCK DRIVER (Ancien employé) - Cambridge, ON - 6 janvier 2020

A good place to work. People there were friendly and helpful for the most part. The hardest part of this job is the time away from home even though it was only 5-6 days away at a time, it becomes difficult to be away as your children grow.

Its a good place to get your foot in the door in the trucking industry. Their training program is top notch and will teach you everything you need to succeed. The team behind you either being your dispatcher, safety team, or training department are always there for you when you need them.

Loved my experience

Customer Service Representative (CSR) (Ancien employé) - Dorval, QC - 9 décembre 2019

Absolutely loved my experience working at CMF! Learned much about fast paced CSR. Our branch manager was on the ball, the dispatch team was like a well oiled machine. Teamwork was a must. The clients were solid and our drivers went out of their way to get the job done! I would go back if my situation permitted.

Too much management unfair practises

Driver coordinator (Ancien employé) - Cambridge, ON - 28 novembre 2019

Pay was average but constantly expected to switch hours around to accomodate their needs and never thanked for doing so. Benefits were expensive and no company contributions to rrsp. Way too much management. Lots of favoritism. Saw really good employees get fired and many that should have been fired are still there. Raises were non existant.

Good place to work for.

Class 1 Driver (Ancien employé) - Dorval, QC - 24 novembre 2019

Excellent transportation company. Very understanding people to work with, very helpful, etc. Very good training program for beginners. Very easy to deal with dispatchers to help you with any problem you encounter on the road. Unfortunately, it was my decision to leave because of family crisis. Would return in a heartbeat.

Good place to work

The job and life balanced, benefit is good such as RRSP and medical benefit for employee and their families. Good management team and understandable. However, wage is too low compare other truck companies. They pay $0.42 per mile.

Slave Camp

AZ Truck Driver (Employé actuel) - Cambridge, ON - 30 août 2019

Great to get your experience and learn a lot about trucking, but if you want to stay and get paid what you should be getting, that's not the place. Other than that, most everyone is easy going and laid back and overall life is good! There's good support when needed, and great equipment to work with. Could be so much better, but it's not, don't believe the hype, unless you like to work for free!

Great management but bad work

Driver (Ancien employé) - St. Catharines, ON - 12 août 2019

The management was great but way to much of it . The work was bad and spread to thin and even though managers were not supposed to favor the senior drivers they did anyway. And when brought to HR 's attention they where reprimanded (manager) but they still favored senior drivers. So it made it hard to make any money for the time spent. Ànd u just would have to leave.
