Pros

Your fellow attendants are good people and make the job tolerable

Cons

During training, I was informed there could be opportunities for quick advancement, but that did not reflect my personal experience. In Jacksonville, the 90-day probationary period is very strict. Even with a doctor’s note for illness, any absence resulted in attendance points and affected eligibility for promotions for several months. Communication with HR often took several days, and the responses I received did not give me confidence that concerns would be resolved. The role also differed from my expectations. I was hired as an Autonomous Vehicle Specialist but the position was classified as Shuttle Attendant. While listed as a full time job the schedule was not set up to receive 40 hours. I was also required to use my personal phone to complete job tasks, including downloading and utilizing company applications, but no reimbursement was provided for this required use. Parking options were limited with the closest guaranteed parking located about three blocks from the site. From my perspective, performance metrics were prioritized more than employee safety. Although daily shift review forms were submitted, I did not often see follow-up on the issues raised. Overall, based on my experience, I did not find the site well-organized or supportive of career growth.

Pros

Most of the managers have moments of understanding and decent pay

Cons

High turnover of employees, strict point system with little to no flexibility if you miss 5 days of work in 6 months to a year you're out of a job. Job insecurity, no pay during holidays or breaks in the school year. In the summer they reduce hours and cut the workforce almost in half. Leaving new employees at the bottom of the senority list either unemployed or income cut In half. There is favoritism and high value for senior employees while new employees are often treated as expendable. Also constant monitoring on the bus and to many on the deck supervisors micromanage drivers making everything toxic. Plus being heavily monitored by the guy overseeing the contract for the university is always an enemy off the driver's. The contractor has no faith in the transdev organization and micromanage them as well.
