      Pros

      Great benefits, and large network of opportunities and possibilities

      Cons

      Some managers are still not very open to new ideas and opportunities from employees of the old Allied Waste which merged with Republic over two years ago.

      Pros

      They allow lots of freedom in planning day to day activites. Home every evening which allows for good family time.

      Cons

      Low pay, all expenses (car, gas, customer "gifts") out of pocket first - then reimbursed a month later. Very low commission structure; not very lucrative to get more business other than meeting the goals set by your local manager. They like you to work a lot of hours! Lots of "baby-sitting". Numbers must be turned in on customer visits and calls every single day, GPS tracked through phones (brand new and may just be local), and daily tracking of numbers through an online database on top of all this!
