Pros

My manager was very nice, half decent hourly pay with overtime, great commission if you're a favorite of the manager..

Cons

progressively higher quoatas while progressively worse leads, upper manager is distant, extremely unethical, no upward mobility, high turnover, threats from management, favoratism is rampant, zero care about customers - only about upselling things the customers don't need, high pressure, constant lawsuis from government and customers, constantly dealing with customers upset by price... i can go on and on...

Pros

Working with the customer accounts was great the job itself was fine. The company was ok about schedule flexibility and sending you paperwork.

Cons

The company will tell you plenty but do very little when it comes to your future or their plan for the company. Partially because they have not found out how to cut every penny from the higher paid employees and to get their "buddies" into positions of power and the other is because they genuinely don't know. This is a VERY bottom line company, they will have you come in on any holiday saying they are mandatory! Why? Because, they always put on the least amount of people to save and then compain when the same people are overworked.

Pros

Health Insurance is extremely affordable. That's it.

Cons

Stericycle breeds a bourgeois environment where only a few selected people get promoted and get the premium work assignments. Each individual is not treated equally based on what he/she knows. The management does not know how to delegate work equally amongst the workers. Cronyism and favoritism are a contributing factor to the reason of why there is a revolving door amongst the workers who are not respected for what they contribute to the work environment. Stericycle uses threats to their recruiters if they try to get current Stericycle workers other jobs at other places of employment. Stericycle is now threatening their employees if they do not comply with their culture. It sounds like various departments within Stericycle are breeding this bad work environment and it really needs to stop. The company does not have life-work balance. Stericycle exhibits qualities that are not conducive to a good working environment. Anyone considering any employment at Stericycle should re-think their decision. Once you’re in this environment, it is hard to get out of it.
