Plett Truck Repair

Hiring process is relaxed and stress free, the average work day is very fast paced to keep up with the demand of truck drivers who have very demanding schedules. While being fast paced sometimes shop environment can seem stressful due to the sheer amount of work that enters our yard. 

Being a new shop (calgary location) there are trials and tribulations that our team will face, however mostly everyone is on board with having the right attitude towards growing their own career and the shop.

I would recommend working with Plett Truck Repair because they do pay extremely well provided you put in the effort to earn what you want to achieve. There has always been help available when ever I had questions or concerns from both the Calgary shop and Langley shop.

So unorganized, constantly getting the wrong parts. The bathroom is the most disgusting bathroom I have ever seen In my life, I wish I could upload a picture so disgusting. The new 3 week old Forman let's people that haven't been to school, do major repairs, and if you tell him that new guys need to be supervised. You will find him rewriting your work orders to absolve him self  from the fact he let someone with no schooling do major repairs and installed everything improperly.

If you are a journeyman and you know your stuff this is a good place to work,now on the other hand and I’m not talking about anyone in pericular,but if you don’t know everything but are willing to try and learn,it sometimes seems like some of the formans want to see a person fail,it is sometimes hard to find someone to help a fellow out if he or she is stuck on something that they are working on.especially when it seems like there is a lot of chiefs working at the same time and I don’t think the chiefs are all on the same page with things ,maybe I’m wrong about this ,I don’t know but that’s how I feel about,but I really do like working at Plett trucking most of the people are really great..

If you show up, you are basically hired, absolutely no trained HR department.
Most people that are hired are gone within 3-5 months.
1st year apprentice promoted to branch manager = no experience.
Very high turnover in management and regular staff. Shop doesn't have the experience, equipment, manuals to provide proper diagnosis and  repair in a timely manor.
Techs are the first to blame from management when it comes right down to it. Apprentices are doing repairs not trained in without supervision and in some cases their safety is at risk. Staff are continuously mislead and given broken promises. Unfortunately there is way too much to list.

Don’t waste your time unless you are desperate. Expect to complete work that was started by 3 or 4 other people who are either not capable or have come and gone. Very high turnover rate, poor orientation, poorly stocked shop supplies unless you need brake clean they have more brake clean than most suppliers stock. Service truck is a disaster, everything thrown on the floor. Considering the company has operated in other locations for many years they aren’t very organized. Shop is mess, no one cleans up after a job.

Owners were very kind and generous, real stand up people. Work varies from hiab flat deck cranes , straight trucks, garbage trucks, city/highway trucks, vacuum trucks, chassis trailers, forklift, work trucks, cars and suvs . A good variety of experiences for the young and up and coming apprentices or red seal who wants to broaden their experience and knowledge.

No idea who has chosen these kind of rookie managers out, first of all Alberta standard, no precaution to COVID-19, fist try of manager to try to shake my hand and even make fun of my because I was wearing a mask and gloves, the people with work there have no mask, did not practice social distancing at all, just another big hole in the ground of the industry.
Avoid this place.

Even as I left he tried to shake my hand, what an experience.

If you dont mind working for nothing and lieing about work being done than this is the place for you. Dishonest crooks need only apply to this lowlife company. The father has taught his sons well how to lie and steal to make a living off people who actually work for a living.  I feel sorry for anyone who works here you will be below the poverty level and will be filling the pockets of the crooks running the place.

Gives opportunity to learn new things and get support from other techs. Gives you shifts flexibility as shop opens 24 hours in weekdays. So one can choose shifts according to need. Get all benefits. So overall one of the best place to work.

i find this a very good company to work for, they offer lots of opportunities to move up that you cant get elsewhere. they pay is above average and the hours are very flexible. the equipment worked on is very diverse so the leaning never stops. definitely one of the best places i have ever worked. highly recommend.
