Pros

Making genuine efforts to be a best place to work. Good benefits and programs. Environmentally conscientious and moral at a corporate level.

Cons

Growing faster than they can keep up with. Entrenched Management of acquisitions like BFI medical has brought neolithic and obsolete management styles with it. Top heavy. Pays too low in operations and transportation .

Thank you so much for your great feedback. At Stericycle we appreciate hearing from our Team Members because it lets us know what's working and what we can improve. We're glad to hear that you feel supported in your role, because without talented and hardworking Team Members like you, Stericycle wouldn't be the great company it is today.

Pros

Good insurance. Get to go home at night!!

Cons

Mico management, conflicting information during training, poor moral among many non top preformers. Impossibly high quotas that are rarely met! Script changes weekly. Useless daily meetings. Management encourages deceptive selling of services, one call closes without the full knowledge normally required when signing up for long term service contracts. The services are over priced comparable to their competitors. I was told by one doctors group that they would never do business with the company again and that it cost his group thousands of dollars to terminate the contract, it was like doing business with the mob! Management only cares about their stockholders, little or no concern for customers or employees! Stericycle is the poster child of what's wrong with blood thirsty corporate America today!! Not recommended! !

Pros

Co-workers...not managers, only co-workers. If you read positive reviews on Glassdoor, it's because it's from one of their employees who work at off-site facilities, not the headquarters (Northbrook, IL). If you're looking for a job at the Northbrook location, don't bother.

Cons

Way too many to list... just read other reviews from the Northbrook, IL location (HQ) and you will see all you need to figure out you don't want to work here.
