Pros

Hands down one of the largest companies to work for in the landscape industry. They also want their people to succeed in the postion they are in and constantly motivating a career nurturing environment for their employees.

Cons

Hard to say much bad about the company however, in trying to get the lowest total delivered cost to the client, some crews can feel pressure from management to deliver their best work while utilizing time management skills that some employees do not possess thus creating friction between workers and management. Best way to solve is for management to provide training and help the crews to become as efficient as possible encouraging the team to better themselves by creating a positive culture and nurture the weak while supporting the strong. This will encourage good cultural practices and develop strong effective teams that will deliver that cost and be rewarded for their efforts.

Pros

Good employees. Standard benefits package. No cap on commissions. Occasional catered meals.

Cons

Unfortunately, as with any large publicly traded company the goal is to keep investors pleased and there is high pressure to perform and grow business in an economic climate where stability is more realistic than growth. The company is structured by different branches, that function as their own cost center while reporting numbers to corporate. This structure makes sense on paper, but unfortunately leads to fractured relationships between branches and departments, leading to a loss of potential revenue. There is favoritism with the top earners being handed their accounts and not having to do much actual hunting or prospecting. Health insurance is very expensive with high deductibles. Usage of company car is deducted from paycheck. A large majority of what is performed could be considered "field work" that most companies would hire hourly employees to do and would qualify as overtime.
