I learned a lot and was able to grow my skills and prepare to advance my career. however, there is little to no room for advancement as a clinician. Layoffs occur frequently with no warning, no severance, and no outplacement, and several longstanding, loyal, and experienced clinicians lost their jobs in the latest round. The company laid off several clinicians and other employees in June and quickly began posting ads for clinical positions again. One might speculate that the company prefers to hire newer clinicians with less experience, in order to save on salaries, rather than value loyal employees who have the expertise to best serve the diverse, global client base.

While team members have strong skills and are very dedicated and supportive, most people are exhausted and unhappy; this is a for-profit company and operates with the same expectation as any call center: volume of calls taken per day and quotas of services offered drives the business.

Clinical supervision is excellent, team leads vary in quality.

Company owners and managers do not value their employees, and do not walk the talk of the worklife balance and healthy, reasonable expectations of employees that their company mission supposedly promotes.

Rolled truck and then spent 2 years fighting for medical compensation, meanwhile suffering from PTSD, depression, Anxiety, heavily medicated, pushed out to a 3rd party back to work management team that doesn't listen or do anything, even down to having to find my own work or not get payed. ComCare is the worst thing to happen to workers.

This company is simply pathetic who have idiots managing it and put public welfare at risk everyday. With poor consideration for keeping the national drivers legal they demand tight lead times and have are happy to ignore GPS movements if it saves dollars. What a garbage company it is. Totally disgusting and not funny. Go Linfox and Toll. They need to educate K&S. RTA and Police need to sort this clown show out.

I absolutely loved working at K&S Freighters.. The only reason I left was due to medical advice.. Salary was great and work was awesome.. Staff are always there for issues that arise.. There is Annual Leave, Sick Pay, RDO’s etc.. I found when I requested time off I never had an issue, you just have to apply around a month in advance unless it is urgent and there is never an issue there.. 
An honest company to work for.. 

Unprofessional undertrained corrupt management trying to navigate the comcare self insurance scheme towards their own benefit.
Nothing but a bunch of liars and frauds.
If you have any professional integrity stay away.  Being good at your job within this business only makes you a target.
