Q&A With TravelCenters of America Employees

No & no

Yes

It is easy to get into the management training program and be promoted to an entry level management position. Have to jump through hoops or really perform well above you peers in order to go any higher than that. Corporate positions seem to open up more often, but positions aren't guaranteed. Have seen many smart, young employees get ran ragged with a dangling carrot in front of their face.

Not hard

Paid vacation days

That they don’t have fair work opportunities for every employee. It’s a hostile work environment.

rarely

black slacks and button shirt

not there

not

meet the numbers or be fired

use it or lose it but can't take anytime off to use it

Anyone with a pulse.

Varies depending on Field/Home Office/ Hourly position.

You don’t want to

Terrible

I no longer have any concern for TA’s future. Just staying until I can retire.

If you can breathe, walk, and teachable, at this point you can/will be hired.

Up beat, have people skills, are willing to work, & show up for work.

I used to truly enjoy my job. Now I dread having to go to work daily.

Very rude, complainers, have to be reminded of job duties that they know but choose not to do.

Somewhat difficult. I work 10 hours a 5 days a week from 2pm-12:30am. At the moment I work Sunday-Thursday. I should have been able to rotate back to days a year ago but once again due to the lack of employees I am not allowed to do so.

The lack of concern corporate has for each site and it’s employees.

Right now, when I can resign in the next 2 years.

You earn according to how many years you’ve worked there.

Not sure how to answer this other than not very.

Anything would help at this point.
