If you feel like your life's net worth is only about being paid $22.50 an hour then this job is for you. Supply your own tools and be ready to constantly be scrutinized by management for managements mistakes. Try not to correct management either or you may have punched your ticket out the door. Make sure that when you show up you are prepared to deal with co-workers that did all of their work in the first five years and feel that now you have to pay your dues and do the heavy lifting. The most enjoyable part about this job is going home. Management does not care about the mechanics or drivers. The drivers could care less about anyone not even the customer. The mechanics don't care about anyone either. The pay is decent and if you can live 30years in this then this place is for you.

If you have kids or want to have any kind of life DO NOT APPLY HERE!! The hours are terrible, their point and attendance system is a joke, the only way to have an absence excused is to rack up a doctor bill, THEIR ARE NO EXCUSSED ABSENCES!! You literally have to have no life at all for about 5 years to have an attempt at getting a decent schedule, their union is just a bunch of money grubbing people that are useless, they pick and choose who they want to help. Its no wonder the turn over rate is so high! The only good thing that came from working there is my CDL and driving experience besides that this place is a joke if you are not in good with the right people and its sad, I actually liked driving the bus but absolutely HATE the company I was driving for!! The benefits we're also decent but high and the union dues ......don't get me started on those!

It is unbelievable no has went in and done a complete audit on this place! There is nothing good about the direction this company is heading in. The culture in this place is cutthroat dog eat dog. Everyone is mad and you only get to move up if your in the inner circle. The pay is not worth what you have to do. They will put you in harms way at thee drop of a hat. That transportation department is the most unprofessional and mis managed places in the city. Save yourself from wasting time if you care about your sanity and peace of mind. Everything about this place constantly pecks at both. They have a ridiculous turnover rate for a company that has in the past been a place that was held as a great place to work at.

The apprenticeship program is not organized/proper at all. I would come in for a 4 day work week, 10 hour shift, only to sit on my phone the ENTIRE time. My trainer did the same thing playing on his gaming computer watching anime all in his expensive tool box. The supervisors noticed this and even knew that my trainer was not a good tech yet would get upset at me for not taking the initiative to potentially do something. Seriously? Pay is good but I used my time of doing nothing investing into the fire service. Applied for college and got payed to do schoolwork. 

A typical day at IndyGo was productive and engaging. I learned valuable time management skills while managing my tasks effectively. Management was supportive and ensured smooth operations. The workplace culture was somewhat quiet, as many employees were antisocial. The hardest part of the job was maintaining the required pace, but the 10+ hour shifts provided plenty of opportunities for overtime. The most enjoyable part was earning a decent wage and working alongside a diverse team of employees, ranging in age from 18 to 60+.

Dont be fooled by this company. They will have you at work 13.5 or more and only pay you for the time you are driving. They like to give you peices of work with "split breaks " that can last up to 3.5 or more hours that you DONT get paid for. Getting 2 days off in a row is difficult enough. If you THINK you are going to get weekends off...think again. It could take YEARS before you see that. This company micro manages your every move. No wonder they have such a high turn over rate. I am currently looking for another job. Once i find one I am GONE.

The most enjoyable part of working for this Company is meeting many different people, and being able to turn their day around with just a smile. The downside is the drivers are not treated with much respect from the management. Being employeed with this company you have to have very thick skin. You need to be able to determine how to handle different situation because you encounter lots of different people on a daily basis.

Customer Service is a nightmare. They lost 7 managers in 6 months, 4 supervisors. They want to micro manage you about every little thing, customers are the least of your problems when the upper management want to change the rules every other week. Don't expect a homelife, they only give you one day a week off. You get one 30 min lunch and they time you every time you leave your desk. No phones allowed at your desk either, no drawing, no writing, no reading. 
It's like working on a plantation every time they walk around you to see what you're doing.
