Pros

You are equipped with a company vehicle and a gas card, so the only thing you need to worry about is your time and lunch basically. You are pretty much sent out all on your own with the expectation you meet standards while performing services for customers. Fairly easy job

Cons

Weekly meetings in office that let out at the time you're supposed to start your route. Daily meetings on days you're not in the office that convey very little if any useful information. Weekly truck inspections that are lazily performed and again keep you at the office until after the time you're supposed to have started your route. Route system can take you all over the place with no rhyme or reason. Office/call center staff don't do their job when customers call in to reschedule or suspend their contracts. Very very POOR communication within the company. Very worn and used equipment that's partially or entirely faulty and makes the job more difficult than is needed. The people around you do not perform the job up to standard and causes fall back on you if you're the following technician.

Pros

Pay and overtime is great, management is decent, you run your own show- upsell, identify pest problems, know your chemicals, different methods, request inventory products

Cons

It's a lot of hours in summer. You will hate spiderwebs. I enjoy seeing many beautiful gardens and getting to know the local wasps, birds, and lizards- but it's not for everyone. Don't trust everything management says, and bring up issues early and with tact.
