De Rooy

De Rooy is a Dutch trucking company that has received overwhelmingly negative feedback from driver reviews. The primary complaint centers on inadequate compensation, with drivers reporting daily earnings of approximately 85 EUR after taxes, far below what they consider livable for the demanding work required. Work conditions are described as extremely harsh, involving long hours, overloaded trailers in non-compliant configurations, and poorly maintained vehicles. Management practices raise serious concerns, including allegations of coercive salary deductions (200-300 EUR monthly) for allegedly excessive fuel consumption, with threats of termination and wage withholding for non-compliance. Drivers report significant discrimination based on nationality, noting Dutch employees receive newer vehicles, higher pay, and lighter workloads compared to foreign workers. Equipment quality is consistently criticized, with trucks described as dirty, broken-down, and equipped with homemade trailers. A few drivers acknowledge some positive aspects from their tenure, but these are vastly outweighed by systemic issues regarding worker treatment, fair compensation, and equipment standards.
