Constantly mess wage and the local drivers dirty cabs,never cleaned

Indeed featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
Not paid right and don't get replies for pay issues, organisation is terrible, the company favourites get the best lorries and the rest are shared between anyone who still needs a job, local drivers don't care about state of cabs so your gambling whether your going to get a clean one or dirty disgusting local driver, units aren't assigned so damage to interior is never pinpointed, loads back to ireland can waiting on break to 15 - 20 hours on a weekend before you get work and no one tells you anything to let you know what's happening your left in the dark

Stay away

As a past driver was good but when culina took over it went down the tube transport managers became available till foreigners which then looked after there own and left you stranded for ages waiting on a back load home and talked to the local drivers like dirt and as for the ceo’s young people who haven’t got a clue and just think they can treat drivers the heartbeat of the firm like dirt so be warned stay away

Pros

Free headaches

Chaotic environment

Very poor communication, sending you to the wrong address, not giving you the correct information, having to chase after the information you need.Rude people on the phone who swear at you, when you won't dance to their tune, because they have made a mistake. Be aware.. if they make amistake, it's no problem, but if you make a mistake, that's a different matter, and the management that supported you when you took the job, will totally distance themselves from you, and give you no support.When you call the office, no one answer's the phone, you have to continue to call , onto someone picks up. "You know, we're not calling for the fun if it, we need information". People in the office have no idea about what's involved in driving a truck, with a 40ft trailer on behind, we're not driving a Ferrari... all lorries have speed restrictors.Planners, plan your loads too tight, so if there's road works, or congestion, and you need to catch the ferry, well you're going to miss it. They throw you in at the deep end and it's sink or swim, and if you're a new pass then you're on your own. They'll send you a text message with just the post code, and you have to ask for the remainder of the address. Money is good, but this place is chaos. This place is good if you want experience, but few stay long term.

Looking after the staffs interests

I thoroughly enjoyed my time with them. They have so many opportunities to go further in your career, even though I was there for a short time due to distance, I worked with a fantastic bunch and would highly recommend Morgan McLernon if anyone is looking to work for the organisation.

Pros

Offered a good salary and were quite relaxed of dresscode

Cons

The hours were long but that was the nature of the job.

Good for beginners

Was working for Morgan's two years, UK trips only. Very bad hours, starting in Ireland 5-6pm. and finish in UK around 8-9 am on the next day. Then 9 or 11 hours break and go back again. Was like a zombie there, always on rush because of ferries or deliveries

Pros

Interesting work

Cons

Low wages for living in lorry job

Good place

Had a great time in Morgans they are flexible and will work round your needs. The office staff are mostly pretty well glued in a lot of ex drivers so rarely get sent round the country for a short cut.

Nice place to work

• Carrying out daily checks on vehicle to make sure it is roadworthy • Delivering chilled and frozen food to main Aldi & Lidl RDCs nationwide • Monitoring refrigeration temperatures ensuring the product was delivered within the desired parameters • Filling out daily paperwork • Cleaning and re-fueling the vehicle at the end of my shift

Very fast and fun place to work

While working at Morgan McLernon I was able to make several new friends and I got along with all the staff. This job required me to be self-aware and need to make deadlines. As well as that, I needed to be flexible and be focused at all times.

Pros

Good fun

Cons

Bad hours

Good Place to Work.

I found The Company a good place to work, but as in all jobs, you need to put in the time to make good wages. As a result this tends to have a negative effect on your home life!!
