Thank you for taking the time to provide a review. Orkin regrets that this was your experience with us as it is never our intention for team members to feel this way. This season was unusual in that there was a significant uptick in all pests populations which resulted in more services needing delivered. We hope that you had a chance to provide this feedback on a local level so we can improve our resource levels if needed as we service customers. Should you have additional concerns, please contact the Division HR Director. Wishing you success in your next opportunity

Pros

Opportunity to work for a well-established and respected industry leader with a strong reputation. Competitive pay with performance-based incentives and opportunities to increase earnings. Comprehensive training and ongoing professional development to build valuable skills. Clear career advancement opportunities into leadership, management, or specialized roles. Excellent teamwork and support from experienced colleagues and managers.

Cons

Long hours and overtime may be required during peak pest control seasons. Daily exposure to pests, insects, rodents, and tight or uncomfortable spaces may not be suitable for everyone. Meeting sales or performance goals can be stressful, especially in customer-facing roles. Work schedules may include evenings or weekends to accommodate customer needs.
