Abell Pest Control reviews

Good equipment to work with, nice people

I have now worked at Abell Pest Control Inc. for 26 years plus. I have always felt like Abell was a part of my family... an extension of my home. John Abell is an approachable owner. He is easy to talk to and very fair in his dealings with his employees. The one mistake we all make is if we are not satisfied we complain to the wrong person rather than approaching the one person who can do the job. I too have made this same mistake. My whole family has at one time or the other benefited from Abell, even when my husband lost his job years ago. Abell opened the door to him and gave him odd jobs to do until he was able to find a job in his line. My son worked here as a summer help to later becoming a tech for Urinal Installations and he worked and paid for university. My daughter Maureen too worked at Abell for close to 5 years until her contract was up. Caitlin came in to do odd jobs whenever needed. So you see if Abell was not a family company, my family would of been out in the cold many a time. I love talking to our customers who also say so many great things about our Route Managers and our company. I love responding to our customers concerns and problems and help them. It is great to work with my branch Managers and the Office Administrators at the branches. I am there to make work easy for them and to offer my many years experience in one of the best companies in Canada. I am not saying this because I work here still but because I genuinely enjoy and love my job. We get opportunities to meet and greet all our Abell employees more than twice a year. Summer gatherings, Christmas Parties for our Abell children, and the Holiday Dinner Awards Night close to the end of the year.... Most of the Salespersons get to enjoy President's Club and the many meetings for O/A's and for Route Managers. I love my job and I appreciate that I can go to my Manager with any problem whether personal or work related and I know that she will do whatever is within her power to make things better for me. I am forever indebted to Abell. Due to my illness of Lupus and diabetes many considerations have been made for me. When I tell our friends about all that Abell does for us they are amazed. My advise to all new-comers give Abell a chance and if you are feeling pressured or over burdened talk to John Abell if your own Manager is not able to help. Do not go around putting Abell down. I have grown with this company and call it my home. Happy 90th Birthday Abell.... my home away from home!!
