      "Great Place to Work" - Sometimes

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Benefits were worked into your salary and family insurance was around 200 per month. Company paid into your 401k and gave pretty good time off allowance and annual increases. Benefits portal was easy to use, and the company seemed to recognize and award people for their hard work.

      Cons

      Moving up was difficult. If you turn down an advancement opportunity you were blacklisted, you will not get another chance. Most advancement opportunities are less than you are making or require more time than you are used to. They will keep you around afterwards and use you up until you quit or get broke down like their equipment.

      Pros

      Good hours, guaranteed 40 hours of pay even if you work less, minimal oversight on route

      Cons

      Easy to get on managers radar, management will write you up every chance they get. Equipment can make for a terrible day

      Pros

      Your management is great office personnel great co-workers great hours great everything about the place was great

      Cons

      It got sold to a corporate company named waste connections, the company then took on all of their BS like the AI in the truck which wasn't too big of a deal other than it takes 8 minutes of photo for every little thing you do so you're always wrong and they took on the corporate promises I fell for one of their promises and now I am unemployed
