      Pros

      Stable company with a good 401, pension plan. Good financials. If you go into the Sales field, (TM, SSDM, DSDM, etc), it can be a good job. Not certain who the tM in Austin is referring to when he states promotion from within, as the top 3 individuals running our Division has never spent a day as an RSM, or TM. That USED to be what made the company strong, as every manager knew what it was like to ALWAYS be available to react to an ESR. I feel bad for my team as they are on call Holidays, and have a challenge just taking a weeks vacation. I have a guy who injured himself, was afraid to go to the doctor as he would miss work, not complete 100% Call Coverage and get written up for it.

      Cons

      The above was supposed to be the pros, but out of the TM/RSMs I know, very few actually still love the job. I would not be able to recommend a friend work for Ecolab unless they have great sales skills, and a college degree.

      ECOLAB is what you put into it!!!!

      Pros

      If you want to be the best and work with the best this is a great job for you. It is at times tough. But in most cases if you need tons of hours to complete monthly, weekly, daily requirements, you are not working with the tools that ECOLAB supplies for you. Make your own schedule aside from customer needs. Great atmosphere within work groups at meetings and functions. ECOLAB promotes exclusively from within. Have never met a manager that was not at the lowest rungs at one point in their careers. Company cars are provided. Amazing benefits and vacation time.

      Cons

      This can take up a lot of time and is demanding when you fall behind or have large customer issues talking several days. It is hard to gain support from top management on issues that pertain to smaller/local customers.
