Pros

Excellent pay good benefits. Great networking opportunity. This job will teach you to become excellent at conflict resolution.

Cons

The work load is overwhelming. Not only is it a 50 hour per week delivery/service but add on sales and running back product and specials it's more like 55-60. Incredible amounts of time being spent on dealing with upset customers over increases and you spend most of your time tap dancing during customer cross examination than executing S.T.O.P. If you don't hit company guidelines on their loss and ruin charges it prompts an audit which requires you to dump out soiled bags of towels and linens which contain such reprehensible things from maggots to semen. All for somebody's bonus. Sadly the already mentioned is only the tip of the iceberg. I would only recommend this job to avoid bankruptcy or avoid foreclosure. If you can compartmentalize and check in your integrity at the door than by all means.

Pros

Travel opportunities. Former corporate management was extremely supportive and good to work with. Free food. Free drama.

Cons

Work life balance. Don’t be a mother to young children if you want to work here. Verbal communication vs. what you get in an email will be contradictory….the gaslighting was unbelievable. Digital metric systems put in place by new corporate management has taken all the creativity and actual management out of the job. Will be mad at you if you don’t make the numbers they want to see, but will provide zero guidance on how best to do so. Hours were extremely long in order to complete all job responsibilities. New upper management is inflexible to specific account needs. Each account is different. HR does not help you - they protect the company. If you need to terminate an employee - they make it impossible.
