Pros

We used to have to come in every morning and stay in the office for at least an hour, then go out into the field, come back at least an hour before 5pm and stay in the office. They changed it so we only have to come in in the morning and it's so much nicer.

Cons

I really didn't get along with the sales manager. On my first day, the manager who hired me announced he was leaving. About two weeks into my employment, the new sales manager wanted to make crazy changes to show his authority. It went downhill from there. He made major cutbacks and the things he kept where supposed to be thought of as gifts, such as bottled water.

Pros

I liked my collegues and we worked well as a team.

Cons

Poor leadership, micromanagement of sales team, disorganized, operations could not service current customers and sales team were expected to bring on new business that we also could not service, zero sense of urgency with operations, a 30% price increase was applied to most all accounts every 10 month and sales team were instructed by the GM NOT to tell new and/or existing customers, very deceitful practices, AI pictures taken from cameras on trucks generated a vast amount of fees that were invalid, customers had to babysit their invoices as to not be taken advantage of, very difficult to retain customers due to price increases, bogus fees, and all around poor service. I’m not sure how or why any customers would use Republic Services.
