Pros

Employment and health care with decent insurer.

Cons

Work more than 40 hours, only paid for 40 hours. Cook's prey on the uneducated to operate their business. "Jesus would support the company past 40 hours and not be expected to be paid overtime." - Words out of District Manager's mouth.

Pros

Able to work a dedicated route under your own supervision, good pay, company truck, paid training, quality materials, they stay current with pest control technology

Cons

not enough route assistants to cover accounts while on vacation so when I would go on vacation nobody would cover my accounts so I had to work way harder to make up the customers that were not serviced. The GM Greg usually only hires someone he feels "needs" the job

Pros

Large Reputable Company, with good name recognition.

Cons

Salary was changed several times without consulting me. I had a written guarantee and they tossed it away like it was a scrap piece of paper. I was qualified to work in almost every department, but would not transfer me even after positions became available. As a salesman, in the pest control industry, most companies offer a host of products. Cooks only offers one termite solution (treatment) So you don't have a leg to stand on if the customer does not want that specific treatment. At other companies, I have had the opportunity offer a variety, thus, close the sale with whatever the client wanted.
