TriMet Reviews

Harrased and assaulted daily by the public. Pending what area you drive, your bus could be shot at. Managers will not back you up no matter what. Once you hit the 3 year mark and your vested, managers do all they can to get rid of you. The union doesn't do well to back you up. If you are assaulted, you can not protect yourself, if you do you can lose your job. Managers are unreasonable. Had a very good time performance of 94%. They pulled me in the office because I wasn't at 100%. Average is 83% on time. Most drivers past and present suffer from PTSD. Close to 200 assaults in one year. Keep your head down and don't talk to the public, couldn't even say hi. The nicer you are and try to help, the greater chance of a complaint.

Constant micromanagement. No autonomy. High management turnover. Take the blame for boss' bad decisions. 1990s technology in all departments, hostile HR department. Payroll errors. extremely inefficient. expected to work during off time and vacation.
