The worst management I have had to deal with

The worst management I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with in my career.I wouldn’t recommend working at Allied to my worst enemy.Long hours, back breaking lifting, terrible management, poor working conditions, stressful, deduct money from your pay for work that hasn’t been done.

Pros

Working alongside some good people

Cons

Long hours, back breaking lifting, terrible management, poor working conditions, stressful, deduct money from your pay for work that hasn’t been done.

For a logistics company, highly unorganised

Courier (Former Employee) - Chullora NSW - 1 December 2022

Very unorganised in my run, had to compete with an agent also doing my run, felt I was getting the lesser amount of deliveries, raised the issue with management and nothing was done. Management was very ineffective and unresponsive.

Pros

Breakfast every now and then

Cons

Completely unorganised

Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) - Chullora NSW - 24 August 2022

Always a challenge at Allied. Love working there. There is endless room to grow within the company which is awesome. You'll never be bored at Allied Express.

great place to learn how to have your lunch while driving

Delivery Driver/ Courier (Former Employee) - Port Melbourne VIC - 26 May 2022

constantly under the pump because everyone wants their delivery yesterday with no regard for time taken from point a to b. if you own a time machine, helicopter or formula one car with a trailer you can earn alot of money

No rest and no breaks

Courier Driver (Former Employee) - Kewdale WA - 10 May 2022

I worked in this company and had to 400km without break constantly monitored by their PDA. At the end of I was so tired that I can hardly walk. If you like to die working while driving and loose your family relationships work for those monsters

Pros

You are given a hopeful promise of decent wage

Cons

You do not enjoy life and run your van and self to the ground quickly

Rubbish job, lousy pay, useless management.

Owner Driver (Current Employee) - Rocklea QLD - 2 February 2022

Worse place ever to work at, worse pay structure ever, miserable management, filthy toilets and amenities, antique PDA’s the list goes on and on, no wonder there’s a massive turnover of staff and contractors. Allied Express keep up your permanent advertising.

Pros

None

Cons

How long have I got?

Pros

None

You don’t get paid for all the hours you work

Is Indeed your favorite place to learn about companies?

YesNo

Even if your desperate don't work here

Customer Service (Former Employee) - Qld - 12 July 2021

Would have to say worst ever company I've ever worked for . Three ring circus without a ring master . Don't get sick or have family emergency they still expect you to work, even with a medical certificate your job will be threatened if you don't show up . Customer service is appauling you can't really help them as several customers said the service is appauling and they feel sorry for you if you work there honestly don't know how the company is still operating.

Pros

The weekend

Cons

Allied Express

Would not comply with contract determination wage scale.

Easy to get a start with, wage scale gradually increases over several weeks. They set goal standards to increase work availability, only then does wage increase happen.

Pros

None.

Cons

Long hours, under paid job criteria.

People working there are cooperative.

Freight Handler (Former Employee) - Sydney NSW - 29 October 2020

I will give 1 star coz there is no place for zero. I went to work and without prior notice they kick me out. One of the most worst place I have ever worked because of management, not because of workers on field.

Pros

No pros

Not a bad job for beer money

Courier Driver (Former Employee) - Port Melbourne VIC - 18 June 2020

I was only there for about 14 months, but I have to say it was generally enjoyable. Yes, stressful, and over-worked at times, but good people earning an honest crust. I would've liked to have progressed onto more regular run work and less ad-hoc, but it didn't come, so I moved on. I also didn't feel the pay matched the work output and expenses, but maybe that has improved since. Anyway, you don't know, if you don't give it a go.

Pros

People, autonomy, customers

Cons

Stressful, progression

Pick Packer (Former Employee) - Chullora NSW - 12 March 2020

Get in have a talk with the workers , get in get it done , pump out the work hard before first break . Once first break is over switch up positions get as much done and then after lunch all get together to finish strong as a team .
