Pros

Trucks are ok and newish

Cons

Everything! From broken promises about pay raises, to any excuse to stop your bonus or even deduct money out of your wages which would mean you’d earn less than the minimum wage!! Drives are “a nuisance “ according to some managers. You’re not allowed in the offices, you stand outside whatever the weather and they are just sitting at the desks. Can’t understand their mentality about staff, don’t they realise what is happening!!! Mental health of some drivers have been affected, but no help from what I saw, in fact they force you out!

Pros

Newish trucks. If you get interview its a guaranteed job as they are really desperate for staff.

Cons

Beware... they offer overtime & bonus etc....promise you after probationary rate your wages will go up.....IT WON'T.... They will deduct any mishaps, damages , bumps, mirrors,lenses, no plates etc....no ifs or buts..... (£250 insurance excess they say...even if it doesn't go through insurance).... They always look at trying to find something, so not pay your bonus..... bullying is clearly evident at ARRichards... Someone handed in their notice the other day and one of the managers went for him in a violent manner, ( had to be restrained by two other members of management). Not a nice place... Avoid ....

Pros

No pros about this company

Cons

Dont work for this company. They are full of lies dont care about mental health well being. The way they treat their staff is shocking, dont like being told straight about what you think about the company and staff they always want it their way and you are always in the wrong. Never listen to the staff when you give them ideas just an amateur company dont know what they are doing. Just run by clowns and managers that arnt capable in being a manager. Dont like people leaving and giving in notices. Also they deduct money off you even though its not your fault!! Dock wages for no reason as what suits them
