      Pros

      Good financial stability. Company is forward thinking. Company is not risk adverse.

      Cons

      Company is lacking in HR sophistication. Promotions and merit raises are mostly based on relationships - not performance based.

      Pros

      WM offers a competitive salary and benefit package. Good job stability and somewhat recession proof industry.

      Cons

      As a front line manager you will be put through a meat grinder. Very little upward mobility. Expect for your cell phone to ring at all hours to include waking you at 3am. Maintenance cost per hour drives fleet repairs so expect and plan for a breakdown at least once a day. Holidays consist of having the holiday off and working the next Saturday. Bonus structure changes every year and you do not find out what the new structure is until after the 1st qtr has ended therefore insuring you cannot hit your numbers for that qtr. With the exception of the employees hired from outside the company many managers do not even have adequate computer skills and no financial business knowledge.
