Pros

Benefits were worked into your salary and family insurance was around 200 per month. Company paid into your 401k and gave pretty good time off allowance and annual increases. Benefits portal was easy to use, and the company seemed to recognize and award people for their hard work.

Cons

Moving up was difficult. If you turn down an advancement opportunity you were blacklisted, you will not get another chance. Most advancement opportunities are less than you are making or require more time than you are used to. They will keep you around afterwards and use you up until you quit or get broke down like their equipment.

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
