Balkan Euro Tir presents a deeply polarized driver experience marked by severe financial distress and operational collapse. Multiple drivers report non-payment of wages lasting months, with one incident involving 15 drivers left unpaid for three months in November 2018. The company's fleet has reportedly shrunk from 30+ trucks to only 9 operational vehicles, with remaining drivers managed by just four dispatchers. Management credibility is questioned, with allegations that office staff salaries were cut in half and that positive reviews are planted by company insiders. However, a minority of active drivers report satisfactory experiences, stating that promised wages were eventually paid, management is responsive, and long-haul work is manageable with proper dispatcher communication. These contrasting accounts suggest the company may have stabilized briefly before declining again, or that experiences vary significantly by driver tenure and route assignment.
