      Pros

      Pay is ok, overtime if you want it

      Cons

      Management at the transfer stations have NO CLUE what they’re doing, they have no previous knowledge of the business whatsoever, I’m surprised they were even hired, they expect us to use our own personal cell phones for work and don’t compensate us for it, they also have favourites that run to them for the latest gossip, safety only counts when it doesn’t interfere with production, they love to write people up for anything they possibly can

      Thank you for sharing your positive work experience while working as an Controller at Waste Connections. It is true, our controllers do relocate for promotions. Our people make our business great and it is wonderful to hear that you enjoyed being a part of our team!
