Does not practice what they preach - Anonymous employee Republic Services Employee Review

Management is constantly changing/reorganizing creating low morale which is ignored. With new management come new policies and procedures creating uncertainty and stress. Invariably the new policies and procedures implemented by new managers is a rehash of what they did before at a previous job which didn’t work then and doesn’t work now. The review system is terrible with the vast majority of employees getting a ‘Meets Expectations’ when about 25% of the employees probably exceed expectations and 25% are most likely performing below expectation. It is the opinion that performance ratings are manipulated to bypass having to explain to the exceptional employees why they are not going to get a merit rate increase or having to create performance improvement plans for underperforming employees. HR does nothing to insure the integrity of the review process. There is a disconnect between the five R’s and the reality of how company management conducts business. Instead of integrity, honesty and doing the right thing, the focus is on doing as little as possible to get by.
