TransCargo's driver reviews reveal significant operational and management issues creating a highly contentious work environment. Multiple drivers report deceptive recruitment practices, with promised benefits failing to materialize. Payment structures are fundamentally problematic: drivers receive no base salary during off-work days, and vacation compensation is minimal (one driver received only 467 PLN after four months). Working conditions include mandatory night driving, high load density (5-7 loads per trailer), and transport of various cargo types including hazardous materials (ADR) without appropriate compensation. Vehicle quality is disputed, with drivers reporting older model trucks (2021+) in poor condition and unresolved cleanliness disputes during vehicle handoffs. Management communication is poor, with owner 'Ruslan' described as dismissive and unresponsive to legitimate concerns. However, some drivers report moderate satisfaction, suggesting mixed experiences. The company operates from Szczecin, Poland (Freja base), and has faced criticism for hiring practices favoring low-wage foreign workers over Ukrainian drivers despite recruiting primarily from Ukraine.
