Pros

Really welcoming environmental compliance team. Ethos at corporate level is very positive. Company wants to do a good job and continually improve. Senior management seem to genuinely care. Challenging and engaging positions. Growing company with a lot of opportunity. Good safety and environment programs.

Cons

Many acquisitions in recent years - some branches have difficulty with new corporate systems or aligning with corporate culture. Vacation allowance could be higher Big company so it can be hard to understand the workings sometimes. IT systems can be a nightmare or slow to be set up.

Pros

GFL does have competitive pay within the waste industry

Cons

We got no safety bonus this holiday, no one told us we wouldn’t be receiving it. Thanks for nothing!! Older trucks, always breaking down, if you whine and cry enough, you get your way with management
