      Not a great company overall 0

      Roll off truck driver

      Pros

      Work as many hours as you want. No need to worry about dot violations because they don't! Lots of stuff to find in dumpsters, or transfer station. Such as mountain bike, snowblower, girlfriend.

      Cons

      Poor equipment. Workday gets longer as the day goes on as there is too much workload for staff. New hires will make $3 hr/more than you are. And Rich Sutton really sucks

      Aimless leadership

      Pros

      If you like lime green it’s the place to be. Quarterly employee engagement events (ie. cookouts)

      Cons

      Communication from leadership is non-existent. Everything is a secret, general management leans into being ignorant. Transfer station managers have no accountability whatsoever, held to no standards by general managers. Finger pointing is the norm, not the exception. Annual employee reviews are held for the drivers only, operations team gets no feedback and gives no feedback to the general manager regarding Ops team. What general manager doesn’t want to get feedback about their managers from the manager’s direct reports? Ones that don’t hold managers accountable, that’s who.
