Transterra Polska offers daily compensation of 60 EUR plus a guaranteed monthly minimum of 2,800-3,500 PLN depending on work schedule and bonuses. However, drivers report a stark contrast between advertised benefits and actual working conditions. While some appreciate the minimum wage guarantee and flexible 6/2 scheduling, the majority describe exploitative management practices, excessive night driving (nearly every night), grueling 15-hour departure times with difficult parking logistics in Germany, and 15/9 work schedules that leave drivers exhausted. Equipment quality is a major concern, with aging trucks from 2017+ showing 500,000+ kilometers and poor maintenance. Management communication is reportedly harsh and dismissive, with drivers stating they face threats of reassignment to worse vehicles or termination if they voice fatigue concerns. Language barriers exist for non-Polish speakers despite a largely international workforce. The company operates routes primarily through port work (loading/unloading) and ADR cargo, with a fictional base in Bleiswijck, Netherlands.
