FIRST CLASS TOURS

This company is very misleading and deceiving. In Austin, they’ll groom you to be a charter bus driver but you’ll only be driving a shuttle. They hide behind being a charter company so they don’t have to pay you overtime. They preach a big safety game but when it comes to actually practicing it, the only accountability is on you. Better make sure you do your pre/post trip, maintain a safe following distance and speed. However, they don’t address or repair their equipment and encourage falsifying log book entries. If you’re the wrong shade, you’ll be brutally targeted and retaliated against! Run from this company! It’s Not worth risking your career! This place is coach at best! I’ve been on greyhounds nicer than these motorcoaches! 

The company lacked a lot of professionalism regarding consideration for their employees and customers. The older women in sales (35-50) act as if they were the mean girls and made it difficult for anyone younger or even slightly attractive. They made people feel uncomfortable, they were snippy, and rude. The owner of the business refused to hire security regardless of assigning two women (CSR who sold bus tickets) to run complete control of the terminal both inside, outside, and when required to de-escalate irate customers on the bus. This job has major safety hazards! The company would also knowingly load a non air conditioned bus. The system didn't allow me to leave the stars empty, it should be 0!

What is the best part of working at the company?
The hiring process was pretty quick.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
They will cut your hours with no notice 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very messy! Gossip and everyone is sleeping with everyone 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Get to work at 5am and sit for 4 hours an go home (if on standby). If you have a trip go In pretrip, find your lead driver and go. If you have a park n ride route, go in pretrip and start ur route, go home then come back for your second half. If on a extended out of town trip there's no telling what you have to do.

At first i enjoyed working @FCT, then i learned the ropes, the favoritism, the slacking, the back stabbing and the attidues! Drivers call in all the time and nothing gets done about it. The buses arent cleaned, trash always left behind and the restrooms are always nasty. Superintendent doesnt do anything about the reports, just sweeps them under the rug and hides it from the owners who are actually on sight.  Employees fighting each other, dispatchers throwing the drivers under the busses so they dont get themselves in trouble..... the hours are rough if you have children. Highly recommend you find some where else!

What is the best part of working at the company?

Some are long , some are not not but very rewarding.

If you need a job, they will give you work but just keep in mind they can not give you options with schedule and they will change it anytime they feel like even the same day without notice, if you value your time it's not worth it compare to other line runs

Being a bus driver is really fun. You get to meet knew people, and travel,see new things. In all, it is your own vacation away from home. And it's all paid for. Not to mention I started this business about 14 years ago CD L wise. And I love it. I took the opportunity when I was looking for a job and I was tired of making less money .
