Pay was ok but not worth it in the end

No established training for Admin, emotional management, stressful environment, severe micromanagement

Orkin Response

Your feedback is concerning. The environment you are describing should have been reported through Division leadership and Human Resources. Additionally, we have been actively implementing updated training for our Customer Service Specialists (Admin) but it may not have reached this location yet. Thank you for bringing the matter to our attention. Best regards!

Business Outlook

Pros

Get to meet wonderful people in the field

Cons

Micromanaged to the Extreme, Hurry up and take your time, unreachable sale goals they make you do or should I say threaten you with, then go behind your back meet with your customer and tell them you over charged them, pushing hard for on time service then have morning meets then ask later why you didn’t do the customers that were scheduled that morning, truly don’t care how many hours you work

Poor training

Business Outlook

Pros

Technical support has improved over the years.

Cons

They change things and implement change without training. I asked a question and got wrote up for it. They set unattainable goals for their employees especially administrative positions. The call center (sales center) works against the field employees.
