Pros
The work is challenging and you have a chance to help others.
Cons
The constant micromanaging and changes in strategic vision cause a lot of issues. I also do not like having to constantly justify every little thing to those above me. We spend a large amount of time sending in reports or being on conference calls reporting out numbers or going over whatever metrics has currently been deemed important instead of being able to be out in the field helping your employees. The company does not let managers do what they were hired for. In addition to all of the micromanaging, as a manager here at Terminix there are extremely long hours. As much as corporate preaches work life balance, there is a shockingly little amount of it due to the constant pressure to meet company demands and score high on metrics.
