THERMO TRANSIT POLAND operates as a Girteka-owned subsidiary specializing in refrigerated seafood transportation across Europe. The company primarily services the Netherlands and Belgium, delivering single-pallet shipments to small retail shops (approximately 90% of routes). Drivers report physically demanding work involving 12-14 manual unloads per shift, often self-unloading cargo with hydraulic platforms. The work is crew-based, allowing partnership teams to operate together on shared shifts. Available reviews provide limited details on compensation, truck maintenance, or management practices. One experienced driver mentions potential operational and compliance violations. Employee retention data is mixed—some drivers depart but others express interest in returning, suggesting tolerable though demanding conditions. The company's backing by Girteka, a major European logistics operator, provides operational stability. However, the substantial physical demands, perishable cargo constraints, and mentioned regulatory concerns present notable challenges for drivers seeking sustainable employment.
