      Pros

      You get a company car to use for personal use.

      Cons

      Too many to list. They work all employees way too many hours, but then talk about work life balance, joke. They talk about safety being a main concern but then force an employee to complete two midnight installs back to back. When the employee questions the safety concern of this, he is told that since they are not regulated by the dot there are no policies regarding hours worked. And the Pest division is an even bigger joke. This company used to be worth something, but that was before the current CEO was in place. Now it's all about the share holders. Do not accept any position with this company, you will regret it within one year.

      Territory Manager

      Pros

      Good products and equipment with a strong International and National Sales Contracts. Up to 70-80% of your business is already contracted. If you have a Sales Territory in a prosperous area you can make fair money but Ecolab will want to split your Sales Territory after a certain Sales Numbers are met and you have to rebuild your Sales. I was hired away from a competitor company for a South Texas Territory Management position from 1993-1998.

      Cons

      Extreme hours. You are on call 24/7 to the Restaurant, Hospital, Hospitality Industry. Excessive Paper work on every Sales/Service call. At the end of a 10-12 hour day you must complete the required reports.

      Worked too many hours

      Pros

      It was a very challenging position. I was able to contribute and my suggestions were usually considered. I felt like I was making a difference,

      Cons

      I was expected to be available 24x7. Especially December - February. Instead of sick says, we had "work from home" days. I was working 50-60 hours per week and was laid-off without notice, as they decided my role was no longer needed.
