Pros

Employee owned, great benefits, leader in Zero Waste industry. A passionate group who really strive to make a difference in the waste industry.

Cons

No room for promotions unless you are one of the over paid protected union employees.It's still a man's world at Recology. Little or ZERO recognition for career advancement if you are a white women. The only women that do hold note worthy positions which are more than less qualified for their roles are; minority, or same sex preference, or both.

Pros

Supportive coworkers, good employee owned company with opportunities to be promoted from within. Just have to put in your time and provide solid work results via leadership qualities and strong KPI performance.

Cons

Tough Union environment to work in, and management structure is a little chaotic and inconsistent. Need to be very flexible, because policy changes happen quickly and often.
