Pros

Generous base plus commission. Target bonus is $2000 per month plus several other products to sell including recycling, tracker services, roll offs, and document destruction. Great training with upholding contracts, reviewing and interpreting legal positions, and creating new offers locking in business for 12-36 month terms.

Cons

Inside Account Manager is a retention role for small to medium business. Each account manager has a book of business that they are in charge of minimizing losses. Main bonus structure is tied to this metric. If the loss goal is not met, all other sales are paid at a lower percentage.

Pros

Waste Management is a great company to work for. Great pay and Bonus plan 401K matching is good also. I would work for this company again.

Cons

Too many reorganizations every two years; you are constantly worried about losing your job to satisfy shareholder concerns for growth. Top management don't seem to care about keeping good talent. Everyone is treated with a broad brush when reorganizing, regardless of talent and performance.
