GoTriangle

Typical work day, drive the bus, deal with some of the most difficult population. Lots of mentally ill and homelessness so many have nothing to lose and will do their best to press your buttons. Don't waste your time calling anyone for help whenever you encounter a situation; you're on your own, no one will show up. I have notice new operations manager has implemented some changes as it relates to supervisors intervening, however she's not there to hear and see that some will never respond. I think they need an overhaul on at least 3 supervisors, they really server no purpose. Morale between operations and drivers is very low. All they do is sit and talk about one another, then once the person their talking about you with leaves the space they begin to talk about them as well.  Don't trust anyone. 
Only enjoyable part is getting off the bus at the end of the night and earning a paycheck. That's it! 

Overall, GoTriangle was a good place to work. Over time, good leaders come and go and not enough consideration for those hired to take their place. Because upper admins are more concerned with filling a position versus properly evaluating a candidate, workplace culture, comradely, diversity and all the things that make a place worth putting your all into takes a dive and it quickly and becomes just a place you work and not something you care about it’s success. Some coworkers in other departments can be professionally disrespectful and there can be a lot over overstepping from people who think they know how to do your job. Benefits package are pretty solid but do your salary research before you interview because they will certainly try and lowball your offer if they can.

GoTriangle is an organization that is a rudderless ship.  It has the potential to be a good organization, but is held back by bad hires.  You cannot expect to provide a service to the community if you hire individuals who do not have the experience required to complete their job duties.  GoTriangle failed with the light rail project.  It hired staff in upper level positions who were woefully lacking the skills and knowledge required to do their jobs efficiently and effectively.  Policies and procedures are usually made up on the spot.  Software used is very outdated.  There is not room for growth.  If you want the experience, go in for a few years, then leave.

BE ready To learn new thing with the bus soft ware. just because you working on fleet vechicle mean there the same in wiring. management will stick together no matter if they are wrong or not. The work place culture is are very different people will cut your throat to get ahead. The hardest part of the job is to watch out for lower management . they will act like they like you but talk hehind you back. The most enjoyable part of the job is on the fleet with postive people who care about  the as much you will.

If you look under the executive level of leadership you will find some of the most qualified individuals who are passionate, able and truly incredible gems in an industry that requires you care about your community and the mission of moving forward this mission of equal access and opportunity through transportation in the Triangle. But the inability to properly utilize, grow, promote and listen to those same people has been a constant.

What was once a wonderful place to work is no more. The back stabbing, favoritism and flat out  punitive environment has become the new norm. It is so sad to see a once vibrant agency losing what made it so great - the people who loved the mission. With no mission and the worst possible people in charge I would not encourage anyone to  join this agency. 

They will find any excuse not to give you a pay increase but they offer increases to people that are in their click. Transportation manager is not professional.

Generally good place to work. Employee drama here Nd there. A lot of promotion from within but I get the feeling the supes are put in their position based on their ability to strong-arm. Excellent benefits and time off package. Unfortunately, they're slowly taking back their holidays.

Awaiting announcement of new CEO coming to GoTriangle, a lot of great people wanting to move forward with an awesome new leader!!

There are a lot of opportunities to do amazing work to support and provide our communities with transportation via bus, commuter rail and improving and adding bus stops.

Most days consist of on the road supervision. Take care of accident investigations and on the road assessments of bus drivers. Admin duties consist of evaluations and policy and procedure enforcement with bus drivers.
