      Only work for this company if you enjoy being treated poorly

      Garbage truck driver

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Has good pay and benefits that other employers will also have

      Cons

      Exploitative in almost every sense of one's personal life, will be forced to work many hours in a day and throughout a week with little to no appreciation. Belittling comments and profane language from upper management. No open communication work culture.
