Pros

Great company to work for if you work hard and creates a balanced life for vacation etc . 401k is great and off time

Cons

Sometimes you can get the worst managers that create extra things for you to do. They think they can fundamentally change things etc. But in the end it doesn't make any difference to the monthly outcome. Employees call out all the time and are not reliable compared to veterans. So you get stuck picking up there slack. Working Saturdays after working 5 days and you have nothing scheduled Saturday, but they still want you to come in and do brainless work not required. High employee overturn or hiring people that need to be micromanaged nonstop.

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.
