Girteka Logistics

Girteka Logistics presents a highly polarized employment experience with stark contrasts between early-career benefits and systemic operational issues. For beginner drivers, the company offers attractive incentives including affordable category 95 training (cheapest available), free accommodation during probation, and professional instruction that several drivers rated as excellent. The Poznan location provides reliable entry-level work with reasonable management oversight. However, experienced drivers report significant concerns: salary payments are often minimal or delayed until route completion, with deductions applied inconsistently and without clear documentation. Working conditions include mandatory night shifts without adequate rest periods, and drivers report forced working hour violations (exceeding 90-hour regulations). The company appears to engage in aggressive cost-cutting including fleet liquidation without warning and potential wrongful termination tactics. Payment reliability deteriorated significantly, with one driver reporting €2,250 in unexplained deductions over three months, and another €3,000 owed after 1.5 years despite legal intervention. Manager-driver communication is poor, with confusion around salary calculations and zero transparency in accounting practices.
