Pros

benefits are decent- dental is awful, commission is very average not above, especially with the amount of unsatisfied customers. Drivers are usually friendly and easy to work with.

Cons

Terrible Management of operations and sales department and disrespect for employees. The company has a very poor name around many areas. The management level have very little experience outside of the company- resulting in extremely poor leadership, lack of versatility and people skills. The company pricing, especially within Illinois, is not competitive nor does the company have a good name regarding Allied Waste when it comes to the Central Illinois area & into Indiana. Consistent customer complaints leads to many cancellations and thus decrease any type of commission. Companies computer systems are also a bit cumbersome to use.
