Pros

Fun job, everyday was different. Easy to make lots of money. Although you had to constantly track it down and ask for it.

Cons

To be successful within this company, any position above DM you must be willing to uproot your family and move across country. You have to be good and pounding and regurgitating corporate cool-aid, even though it’s both morally and ethical is wrong, also contradictory to previous policies or mission statements, but you want more money at any expense right! There is no “culture” to Ecolab anymore, the owner would probably roll in his grave to know how current management has destroyed that. There is nothing “fair” or “right” by anything they do. It’s all smoke and mirrors at the expense of the work horses who bleed and sweat on the daily basis and will be sacrificed in a moments notice.

Pros

The pros are four day work week 10 hour days, with many Fridays volunteer overtime They try to make a friendly environment

Cons

The pay is not as good as the other places around the area – odd for a fortune 200 company Daily quotas on work – some of them are unrealistic Many department supervisors – a.k.a. “coaches “ are pretty good – one or two are not. Typically these are the ones that have been there for 25 years plus. 20 minute break in the morning, 20 minute break for lunch 10 minute break in the afternoon You are truly on your feet for majority of the 10 hour day The corporation tries to make a friendly environment, but very few employees involve themselves in it. Much backstabbing among line workforce, not a healthy environment. Line workforce runs to supervisors constantly about other people when they should be concerned about their own work. Management has their favorites and you could see that by who who they talk to, and who Brown noses them
