Business Outlook

Pros

Pre-acquisition, Stericycle provided hot leads and a supportive sales environment.

Cons

Post-Waste Management acquisition, conditions deteriorated. Hot leads were reassigned to inside sales, forcing us into constant cold calling. Unrealistic KPIs ensure failure. Incentives are negligible, crushing morale. HR enables nepotism, and management prioritizes inside sales, fostering a toxic, unfair workplace.
