Pros

The non-management co-workers are amazing. They are the most caring and wonderful people.

Cons

Constant revolving door with the C-Suite. That mean constant path changes, not enough resources to do the job. Then we get yelled at for not doing the job on time. Half way through a project, it's toss aside and the newer and greater project is started. Anyone remember Project Genesis? How many millions of dollars wasted, then poof it's gone. Mission is so old and needs to be replaced, but the business screams every time IT talks about updating it. It's over 20 years old!

Pros

Lots of time to listen to music,podcast while driving. Company car.

Cons

Management is very poor. Training is non existent and if you get any it's from the wrong person. Management changes positions frequently. Just overall a bad company to work for.

Pros

You can make good money, but is it worth dealing with bunch of small minded and insecure micromanagers?

Cons

The branch I worked for was run by completely unqualified managers (to say it lightly) who came from backgrounds like uniform company, school bus operators, loss prevention or car rental agencies. And who changed like so often that I lost track of all those who came to "manage me" during my several years with the company. The latest "genius" did it for me. Knew absolutely nothing about pest control. Imagine the race car driver taking direction from a 3 year old kid on the tricycle. I felt just like that. On top of that the region director was a car rental guru who would not know a difference between a roach and a mosquito. Disappointing. It is a 100% commission based position, but they control you in every aspect. You can fart without first asking their permission. No vacation pay, no holiday pay, no sick day pay, no personal day pay. They give you these days but pay you nothing when you take them. Many times it is even hard to get them. Save yourself time, money and most importantly protect your health and sanity. DO NOT GET FOOLED BY THEIR EMPTY PROMISES!
