Pros

No commute cost and a service that a lot of people rely on. Summer bonus and incentives are really nice and the Picnic and Banquet was a nice gesture.

Cons

No work life balance, if you ever felt over worked and underpaid that’s how I felt everyday when I went to work. On a daily my lunch was only 15-20 minutes and I worked an average of 10 hours a day. Management never recognized individuals who provided excellent service via the feedback from customers. Office staff have no clue of the job of a Service Professional which can be very stressful at times. The turn over rate is horrible which have you working behind a lot of people who don’t care about the job. No health insurance and if you are sick you have to provide a doctor note which means a job that pay you 13.50 an hour require you to create a health care bill at an Emergency Room or pay out of the pocket to a Urgent Care. I also witnessed someone get a pronation without the position being announced as vacant, and was giving to someone who had less seniority and personality than others.

Pros

​Stepped Training & Weekly Classes: Management is great about not overwhelming you. We learn new technology one step at a time, and we have weekly team classes to make sure everyone has the information "down pat" before moving on. ​Veteran Mentorship: This company truly values experience. They lean on veteran technicians to walk new employees through every step of the process so they aren't left alone on a route until they are 100% comfortable. ​Customer Loyalty: Our "Reduced Risk" approach (using botanical-based pyrethrins and EPA-approved treatments) is high-quality. I’ve seen that even when customers leave for other options, they almost always come running back once they realize the value of our service. ​Collaborative Bonus Culture: We have monthly bonuses, and we actually help each other hit them. In our meetings, if one tech finds a better way to hit a goal, they share it so the whole "family" can maximize their earnings. ​Strong Communication: You are never on an island. There is constant contact and support between co-workers, supervisors, and manageme

Cons

Adapting to Change: The industry moves fast and the technology is always evolving. It takes a professional mindset to stay on top of the weekly classes and new mobile systems. ​Physical Energy: This is a high-energy field role. It requires daily stamina and a strong work ethic to manage the routes effectively and keep up with the pace.
