Marathon International sp. z o.o. sp. k.

Marathon International presents a severely deteriorated workplace environment based on driver feedback. Workers consistently report systematic underpayment, with promised salaries significantly reduced through arbitrary deductions and eco-norm penalties. Initial compensation packages (12,500 PLN monthly with hotel accommodation at 45 PLN/day) have eroded dramatically to as low as 7,000 PLN for 24-day periods. Drivers face excessive working hours (89-89.5 hours per two-week periods, 3/1 schedules) operating uncomfortable DAF CF cabs that cause chronic back pain. The company implements punitive fine systems for tire pressure violations (300 PLN), windscreen damage (1,300 PLN), and wheel replacement costs entirely charged to drivers. Management is characterized as incompetent, dismissive, and unresponsive to driver concerns. Paid leave entitlements are circumvented by mandating vacation time for base trips rather than actual time off. Most problematic is the pattern of mysterious remote score manipulations and lost receipt documentation used to justify additional deductions. The company's service quality deteriorated significantly in 2023, transitioning from a once-respected employer to what drivers describe as an unaccountable, disorganized operation.
