      Decent job with good opportunity

      Hazmat technician
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      To make a lot of money due to the amount of overtime one can get if willing to put in the work

      Cons

      Every day is variable and hard to plan or maintain a work life balance. Jobs can be five minutes from the shop or 18 hours from the shop and the length of time spent on jobs is often unknown. Job pop up last minute that might require staying out of town and can go days, weeks or even months. If you have a family with little kids, this job is probably not for you.

      Poor management team

      Outside sales account manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The pay and benefits are pretty decent.

      Cons

      The sales manager is inadequate. He knows nothing about sales and is only interested in data. Hes arrogant and not helpful in any way. He doesnt train new employees. He ties up hours of valuable time with pointless meetings, asking each person what their favorite food, sports team, color, etc... He also is a fanatic about Sales Force & Wishes, which is fine, but he leaves little time to get out and actually sell. He has lied so many times to get what he wants accomplished and never once made good on any of them. GFL will take and take and take from their employees until they use you up and then they bring in other new people to repeat this on until they use them up. NOBODY leaves here better off. If you stay, you will be sucked dry and have no personal life. I've seen it happen time and time again.
