Pros

Great short term position until you find something better. They'll basically hire anyone that can fog a mirror up and pass a drug screen. This goes for outside sales reps, lawn specialists, and office personnel. The sales manager that I personally dealt with was a very ethical, talented, caring human being.

Cons

I have never held a position in an organization where NONE of the employees had anything good to say about the company. The employees of Trugreen are battered and negative. They have a right to be; as bonuses, the length of their seasonal employment, personal recognition, and other forms of rewards/compensation been taken away from them little by little for the past 6-7 years. I was offered an opportunity to move departments and get a 33% base salary increase before I got laid off last year, and was quite pleased.......until I got to my second interview with the general manager of the facility that I worked at. He told me that he would go ($__ per hour), any more he would have to sleep on it. Being desperate to work at the time, I accepted a salary that was $2 per hour less than the 'concrete' offer that was made to me at the end of last year.

Pros

You do not have a manager standing over top of you during the day until you get back to the branch

Cons

Pay, commission's, sales goals are to much on top of the production you have to do.

Pros

All the employees go through a background and drug test. I love the ability to advance at Trugreen, where as some companies take 5-10 years to go through management, here you get twice a year to try and advance yourself. health benefits

Cons

The hours are late, there are no bonuses for employees under management, and you have to work the day after holidays
