UNION TRANSPORT is a Polish trucking company with severely declining reputation among drivers. The company has experienced significant organizational changes, including fleet reduction and numerous layoffs, which has negatively impacted driver morale and job security. Multiple drivers report being dismissed due to fleet sales despite satisfactory performance. Working conditions have deteriorated markedly, with drivers describing exhausting schedules including 15 consecutive working days and excessive loading/unloading cycles (up to 7 per day over short distances). Management communication is poor, with sudden dismissals communicated via text messages while drivers are working. The company has shifted liability for insurance claims entirely to drivers, which drivers consider unfair and exploitative. Payment structure involves substandard agencies that change annually, creating employment uncertainty. While some drivers mention promised benefits like varied schedules (2/1, 3/2, 4/2 rotation) and €50 daily rates, these appear to be marketing claims not reflected in actual working conditions. The company was previously respected but is now widely discouraged, with only restrictive schedule options (3/1, 4/1, 6/2) available.
