Pros

Good business concept with high selling point on the patented Tri-Cam Locking System for leasing and selling steel containers. Many hourly people are "salt of the earth" committed to their positions at the branch levels. Commission plan is favorable but frequently develop disincentive loopholes.

Cons

Half-assed execution of a good business concept largely due to the lack of captial reinvestment (i.e.trucks, security offices, and design innovations) may eventually take its toll on overall revenue success. Mobile Mini is miserly cheap and its trucks and containers are in dire need for updating or replacement, office and yard facilities are spartan at best. Most salient is the MMI regional management tendency to resist feedback from its' front line hourly employees.

Pros

Once upon a time, I enjoyed it.

Cons

New CEO took over. He’s pretty out of touch. My former colleagues call me and ask me return on a weekly basis still because it’s going poorly for them. They constantly make business decisions that counter organic growth. Probably because the motivator is not organic growth. Sales are treated like call center employees and there’s a ton of hate from the WS/ MM merger that wasn’t dealt with. It is definitely an ivory tower. You’re inside of it or you are not. If you’re liked, you can do whatever you want. As long as it looks like you’re committed to the group. This means that you can’t share a dissenting opinion though. Two of the worst three managers I have ever seen were there. They target individuals who don’t go be them the metrics they want in safety or performance. HR’s goal is to protect the company. Share nothing with them, ever.
