Pros

if you are are hard worker that doesn't mind doing things the hard way, waste management is the place for you

Cons

people have been there forever and promoted through seniority. they do not like to change. they prefer to work harder doing it the wrong way to get things done rather than making upgrades to their processes. this place hates change! if you are a dynamic efficiency oriented high performer, Waste Management is not the culture for you.

Pros

I honestly can't think of any good points about WM.

Cons

Lying management Low pay Lots of employees with nothing to do, then others doing all the work... great place for the lazy and unambitious Promotions based on tenure and apple polishing, not merit Out of touch c suite No ethics or integrity HR protects lying management at the expense of rank and file Lying management, again
