Pros

Pay is okay but not if you add up all the hours you work, reimbursed for mileage on personal car

Cons

Work into the evening every night just to keep up with admin work and meet field activity requirements during the day. Supposed to defend 30% price increases. Unrealistic expectations all around. The company didn’t use to be this hard to work for but the last couple of years have gotten rough.

They Discriminate!

Pros

Decent pay but not comparable to the work you have to perform!

Cons

Republic services will discriminate against : gay people, black people, Mexican people, old people, poor people, non Republicans, non Christians, disabled people, medical prescriptions, transgender people, asian people, there is not 1 group of people safe at republic services! This is the worst place I've ever worked in my life. Nobody knows anything here. Managers, supervisors and HR know NOTHING. It's like everyone just shows up for 8 hours and rides the clock and goes home. I do not recommend working here unless yoy want them to discriminate against you for not being a perfect human being!
