Pros

Pay is ok, overtime if you want it

Cons

Management at the transfer stations have NO CLUE what they’re doing, they have no previous knowledge of the business whatsoever, I’m surprised they were even hired, they expect us to use our own personal cell phones for work and don’t compensate us for it, they also have favourites that run to them for the latest gossip, safety only counts when it doesn’t interfere with production, they love to write people up for anything they possibly can

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
