Pros

For the most part they are team oriented; co-workers are friendly and easy to work with; Starting pay is good; benefits available after your first 90 days. Winter hours are decent, summer hours are long, but over-time Is covered

Cons

What once was a family and team oriented business is now very corporate. Routes are not guaranteed. Expect to be riding on the back of a truck a majority of the time. Strict driving requirements can leave you feeling like you're damned if you do, damned if you don't. Training is poor and inconsistent.

Pros

Best starting pay in the industry Great management Good training Excellent company culture Seriously, if you’re trying to get your start in the CDL industry, check out ACE Solid Waste. You couldn’t ask for better if you wanted to. This is your dream job. They have a Mom and Pop culture, but have the resources of a multi billion dollar corporation. You will not find a better company to work for

Cons

Occasional long hours when we have open routes
