RoadRunner reviews

This company is a data collection company disguised as a company "looking to recycle and find the greener good" or some bs like that. This job will put you through 9 weeks of training in which one of the three trainers are good. The other two women lack any skills in training or leadership. You have about a 50% chance of making it past training. The company then incentivizes you to obtain company's waste invoices through cold calling. When you actually get a company to give one up, you then have to get it approved to earn commissions, and that happens sparcely. They tell you it's about gaining new customers and make you feel like you'll be doing some good in he world but they have no incentive to get anyone to start recycling and no incentive to gain customers. It's all about data collection. The sales coaches are mainly fresh-out-of-college kids that have little to no experience in sales. They do pretty much nothing but kind of babysit you all day but most of them don't actually care what you're doing. The company promises to buy new customers out of their current waste contracts and most of the time, they don't. New customers get stuck paying 2 companies because RR won't pay off the old contract. The company is ran by a guy and a group of his college buddys and aren't the least bit qualified for any of their positions. The worst part of the company is the head honcho of inside sales who is basically a phantom. He's never working, never actually helps anyone and gets paid more than anyone else in inside sales. Run from this job!!

Where to begin… -quote from Hr “sdr turnover is 100%” -worst leaders I've ever worked for -they’re bleeding cash -moved us cross country, pinned us to a contract, arrived with no office or resources -found out as a sales mgr I was being laid-off mid day from my employees, they randomly shut my laptop off mid zoom call with my TM on call and she didn’t even know about company layoffs. Then later offered my job back? lol -lack of transparency from everyone -market was opened with no hauler partnerships while expectations were to hit quota, made no sense at all -fake news, they’re the “catfish” of recycling industry. They’re just waste brokers, once local haulers realized they just need to keep rates tighter roadrunner has no value prop. they have razor tight margins bc they have to payout the haulers they broker with -getting investments means literally nothing, operations ran this place to the ground didn’t know how to grow strategically ran by a group of friends -you can be the best sdr one month and on a PIP the next bc of micromanagement -everyone is a corporate robot you speak up to suggest something you get scolded and put on the list and clock starts ticking -implemented a two month hurdle which, fired employees at an aggressively fast rate
