Pros

instead of taking 1/2 hour lunch break you can take 45 min to a hour lunch break and get paid for those extra minutes, instead of calling in at the end of your route you can call your co workers on that same town to see if their done and meet up somewhere and shoot the breeze and smoke cigarettes for a half and hour and get paid for it before you call in for misses they were scared to get sent somewhere else and god forbid have to work some more

Cons

lots of gossiping among co workers, management blames you if something in the truck breaks down when you had nothing to do with the break down

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.
