Pros

I was a commercial account specialist and the only Pro was that I had a flexible schedule and my immediate manager was very supportive and appreciative of the work I did. Everyone else I was not impressed with

Cons

All they care about is new revenue. No real concern for the customer and/or their employees. Management is obsessed with reports and redundancy. Local management in my branch just manipulated the system and used their seniority with the company to push people around and get rid of the people they did not like. Unfortunately I left a good stable position at Disney for a higher paying job with Trugreen. Tried to move upward in the company and apply for several jobs that i was very qualified for, but was shut down each time. I would recommend anyone applying to Trugreen to do their due diligence with this company. If I an idea what this company was all about I would have never accepted their employment offer.

Pros

- Very very easy to move up in the company. If you dedicate a couple years and show skill in sales you can move up to a sales manager position extremely fast. If you are willing to move the opportunity to move up is even significantly easier and faster. - Almost all of management started at the bottom and worked their way up, if possible they always hire from within. - Good money, get out what you put in. - Direct Management is great, local and even regional management is almost even fantastic, but any higher then that becomes out of touch and very frustrating to (albeit indirectly) work with.

Cons

- Inconsistent at times about expectations, at times asking for one thing then immediately needing the other. Can be frustrated to be pulled in so many directions, but not even remotely unmanageable. - Lot's of hours, especially in management. Prime time? (March-End of May) Say goodbye to your personal life! Mandatory 1/2 day Saturdays, definitely a grind but worth it. - Frustrating policies and illogical outlook on what success looks like.
