Consolidated-Bus-Transit

I worked for this Company for 5 years and still can’t afford NYC rent. My hours have increased along with more responsibilities with a very low pay check. The management only care about getting runs done and depending on the day you approach them about anything honestly you might get spoken to disrespectfully. The board of Ed is loading up the buses where drivers may have up to 5 different schools leading to very late ending days with absolutely no overtime. 2021 and $600 a week can’t cover the cost of living for any human being in NYC. All school bus companies are under paying drivers and pocketing the difference from their charges to the board of ED. Horrible Company and industry to deal with 

I was glad when I started working here. I had the split shift from 5:45a- 9:45a/ 3:45p-7:45p(something like that) Monday to Friday. I had O.T built into my route so automatic 50 hours a week. I worked there about 3 to 4 months. When you work here it’s all about that job and your personal life doesn’t matter. I’ve had to take my kids to appointments before and when I would call out I would get warnings about it. It was always a big deal if I called out. I know it’s a job but it made me feel like I wasn’t suppose to take care of my personal matters. Another thing, $20.86 is not enough for these drivers, benefits are horrible. This job is great if you don’t have kids, don’t plan on getting sick, and don’t have a personal life. The other drivers were very friendly and welcoming. Management sucks. 

Typical work days are good, no complaints at all. I have learned a lot of my job, the company, and about life since I’ve been here. Which I am very grateful for.

Management needs work.  A lot of people are over worked because they are doing other people’s job. It doesn’t make sense to why half the company doesn’t do their job correctly then it falls back on other people resulting into unnecessary stress and complications. Communication also plays a big factor in that situation as well.

The hardest part is just keeping up with people that don’t want to communicate. The easiest part is when I’m working alone on my task and anything that I was assigned to do that day.


From the start, the Bronx paratransit culture at Consolidated has been more than welcoming. From all staff coordinating holiday parties to assisting staff/drivers when they may be at their lowest point. Paratransit definitely creates everlasting relationships and memories. As for any business, there are areas to improve as the nature of the business changes - but ultimately there are leaders who step forward and push innovation to keep up with industry standards which allows the paratransit division to remain the leader in the industry. Overall, great experiences, teamwork, communication (which has improved greatly), and culture. I would recommend Consolidated for those who are coachable and enjoy friendly competition.

What is the best part of working at the company?
What is 1 of the Worst things a Company can Do is when you work for them there Claiming you on 3 Different Companies SNT..OWN..and BORO Transit I had 3 W2’s Forms so when I made a choice to not work for this company no more this is what I got back to me when TAX Season Came apparently I Made the Right Choice in Choosing in Not To work for a Corrupt Company anymore!!!

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Field Trips when you take kids on Trips You Do Not get PAID so if you have an accident it’s on your license Free of Charge!!!

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Politics To Much Butt Kissing 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
The Kids are great as usual it’s the Company

A fast paced work environment that takes safety of others and every one involved in this company seriously. The Dispatch office promotes professionalism and a team environment.  The wages offered were great and Management was always available if you needed assistance. I come in and get right to work from the time I come in to the time I leave and makes the day pass by much easier and there is always work to get done.  
I learned precision, balance and workman ship in this company. Management team was definitely hands on as far as the workers go. They cared about what you as a worker thought.  My co-workers were amazing as I miss them very much.  The most enjoyable part of my job was learning a new skill set and adding it to my repertoire.

My typical day at work starts when me and the bus driver get on the bus early in the morning. We pick up students in the morning to go to school then drop them off at home in the afternoon. What I have learned from my job is how to interact with children they need to be talked to in an appropriate way. Management at Consolidated has always been good to me making sure I follow the rules and regulations. I have met some amazing co-workers through my 8 years at Consolidated so much so that I consider them family. I would say the hardest part of my job is waking up super early just to get to the yard by 6 AM the latest. And the most enjoyable is the break I have in between just to get necessary errands done.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The children and the independence  of you just working with one person assuming the safety for the children it’s really a great job for a person who love’s children and work independently and like to travel 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
My most stressful time is when I had to pick a route other than that this a the best job ever hands down !!

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Great work environment  , I personally had no issue with anyone  

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day for me is getting my children on time and making sure there in school on time

I've worked for other school bus companies and I have to say that this one is by far the best. A typical day at work is picking up children at home and dropping them off safely at school and then vice versa.  However, it may seem easy but it entails dealing with children and their parents.  This company trains you and make sure you understand how to get the job done in a professional manner.  Management is great and easy to talk to.  They answer all your questions. The hardest part of the job is dealing with traffic at times but it's part of the job.  The most enjoyable is hearing the thank you's from the children and the parents when they get to their destination safely.

I did not have a typical day at work. Everyday at Consolidated Bus was an amazing learning experience especially working with multiple people with different cultures in which I learned a lot from them. The management team that I reported to were very professional.  I was lucky enough to be able to work with different departments because of the role that I had in the company.  I worked with individuals that were recently hired that brought new ideas and brought their drive to start making positive and beneficial changes within the company.  I thank Consolidated Bus for allowing me to be part of a great team.
