Pros

RoadRunner has an abundance of pros that are presented during the interview process such as: room for growth, benefits, competitive pay, etc but the one that got my attention the most was the people and how compassionate everyone is.

Cons

No current cons that I can name.

Pros

Great, young company with high ambitions and a great mission, reinventing recycling to focus on better returns for customers. Meetings in the field allow you to meet people from all walks of life across probably every possible vertical there is. When I had 4 BDRs I was always in the field, churnin' and burnin'. Heavily focused on expansion, RoadRunner has a lot of upside for career growth.

Cons

The revolving door of BDRs was definitely rough, as they directly correlate to your meetings, which leads to your success. It's definitely a numbers game, so if you have call reluctance, talk to what RR does or combat rebuttals off the cuff, this may not be a good position for you. While luck plays a large role in this, the people you meet with may not share the same integrity, so distinguishing RR from competitors and traditional haulers is CRUCIAL. In essence, the job itself had no cons in my experience. Often times it's things outside of your control that steer the ship.

Pros

There are a good amount of pros to working here, the location is great, benefits are solid, most of the people in there are nice, if you surround yourself with that group. The experience is what should draw anyone in, the sales experience is the best part of working for this company, since the requirements to get hired are minimal it’s not hard to be a top producer and turn this into career stepping stone like most do.

Cons

The cons are due to growing pains, trying to pump all the markets with bdrs, thinking that more calls will get more meetings which will get more invoices is completely wrong. They micromanage constantly which isn’t the sales coaches fault but their managers. There is no freedom in this office, the commission structure is supposedly being altered as well which will help some, but anyone has yet to see any progress on that. There are bdrs in there dropping like flies and the talent they bring on to fill those positions they shouldn’t be hired in the first place, most of the people in there aren’t business professionals either, just hired to fill a seat for a few months before they’re fired and then the seat is filled again for another few months.
