Pros

They mean it when they say Steri "cares" Very strong culture initiative Great benefits, excellent compensation package with reasonable expectations Decent 401K, great employee stock option, health initiatives, vendor discounts Excellent safety programs The CEO has a suggestion box that goes right to his desk; he listens! Surprisingly clean for what we do.

Cons

We pick up regulated waste (hazardous waste, regulated medical waste). It's hard to make that sexy, but they do a pretty good job at it. Regulatory minutia is cumbersome but that's the industry. So much is going on with IT that they all seem confused. Lots of mergers so lots of interesting ...architecture.

Pros

I truly cant say anything good about this company. It may be better in other areas but the one I worked at was awful

Cons

No room to advance. They use safety and production bonuses to motivate employees but will take them away for any reason they see fit even if you had nothing to do with a mistake that was made if they cant figure out who made it they will take away the bonus from everyone. They work you to death and force you to work overtime even if they didn't warn you about it until the end of your shift and if you refuse you will be written up and have your bonus taken. I had a bonus taken by mistake and the manager told me "theres nothing I can do about it". The pay is terrible for the hazards you are dealing with. They pretend to care about safety so much but force you to go beyond the restrictions of the safety guidelines all the time.
