Great Garbage Place to work

Pros

The management, especially mid-level, had a good attitude towards their employees and to me, a contract employee. Recology is mostly employee-owned, so there are a lot of benefits and decent, competitive pay for the route drivers.

Cons

Some of the trash routes seemed to be comparatively "uneven" as far difficulty and length of time to finish all the work. It seemed that Recology was trying a new way to rectify this by installing meters and cameras in the trucks.

Pros

Great benefits including ability to make an impact by being an employee owner. Employees have two retirement plans. Great career opportunities with a growing company. Love the commuter benefits subsidy and the generous PTO.

Cons

The company tends to run lean so you may get pulled in multiple directions. Computer systems need to be brought up to date.
