Pros

Operating trucks was fun to me. Over a five year span 2.5 of which was at republic I have operated in residential, commercial, and industrial lines of business and could operate every truck on the lot.

Cons

Company ran me into the ground, didn't have time to use the bathroom let alone take the mandatory lunch break management bullies drivers into signing off that they took when they didn't actually have time to.

Pros

I liked my collegues and we worked well as a team.

Cons

Poor leadership, micromanagement of sales team, disorganized, operations could not service current customers and sales team were expected to bring on new business that we also could not service, zero sense of urgency with operations, a 30% price increase was applied to most all accounts every 10 month and sales team were instructed by the GM NOT to tell new and/or existing customers, very deceitful practices, AI pictures taken from cameras on trucks generated a vast amount of fees that were invalid, customers had to babysit their invoices as to not be taken advantage of, very difficult to retain customers due to price increases, bogus fees, and all around poor service. I’m not sure how or why any customers would use Republic Services.
