Pros

You will work plenty of hours. Lots of overtime depending on the season. Guaranteed 40 during the slow part of the year. Learn a lot of different skills. Good healthcare plans.

Cons

Orkin does care about you for the most part, but they are a business. So gettin the most work done is always their #1 priority. Lots of Saturday’s and a lot of hard work are to be expected.

Pros

Opportunity to work for a well-established and respected industry leader with a strong reputation. Competitive pay with performance-based incentives and opportunities to increase earnings. Comprehensive training and ongoing professional development to build valuable skills. Clear career advancement opportunities into leadership, management, or specialized roles. Excellent teamwork and support from experienced colleagues and managers.

Cons

Long hours and overtime may be required during peak pest control seasons. Daily exposure to pests, insects, rodents, and tight or uncomfortable spaces may not be suitable for everyone. Meeting sales or performance goals can be stressful, especially in customer-facing roles. Work schedules may include evenings or weekends to accommodate customer needs.
