Q&A With TravelCenters of America Employees
At TravelCenters of America, we've made a huge investment in the future. But for it to really pay off, we need people who share our commitment. We’re looking for people who are dedicated to improving the quality of life on the road for professional drivers and the traveling public. We need people who understand the importance of a good value and who’ll go out of their way to deliver it. We want our customers to be so satisfied with our service, they choose us every time they travel. And that level of satisfaction starts with TA and Petro people.
How employees describe working at TravelCenters of America
The company seems to focus more on the bonuses that go into their paychecks than the employee's safety and efficiency of the workplace. I have rarely worked for a company who cares less about their employees than BP/TA.
