Pros

Salary is very good. Good benefits. Supplied with a truck, uniforms, and all equipment.

Cons

Everything else. Not the place to be if you want to keep your self esteem or have a life outside of work. Pressure on route managers is extreme and there's a lot of negativity and intimidation. I have been in the industry for many years and have worked for other companies but I can honestly say this is the first company that makes me dread climbing into my truck everyday including weekends. In some cases you can count on giving up to 6 or more full weeks of your year for on call. Forget about overtime pay. You work after hours or weekends or organize your truck and calls for the next day and also do mandatory on line courses all on your own time.

Pros

Control your income, great benefits (RRSP contribution matching program), job security, no cost to working at Abell (tools, uniform and vehicle provided). I have worked at Abell Pest Control for 15 years now and feel that the way I have been treated by the company has a great deal to do with that. I have been encouraged by management and peers to better myself in all aspects. Great team, great place to be!!

Cons

No real cons to advise.
