Corporate Greed is ruining them

Pros

It was decent pay for a while

Cons

Over the past several months Republic Services has gotten rid of holiday bonuses and minimized the monthly bonuses for sales employees. They have slowly but surely ruined their company and many people including myself are jumping ship. Do yourself a favor and apply somewhere else regardless or the position you're applying for.

Pros

Really easy job. People you work with are really cool. Local management does a great job.

Cons

Money isn’t great. People will call you all day long and scream at you for service issues or a contract increase occurring. Every account you lose regardless of if it’s controllable goes against you and your commission.
