Cons

GM is a self serving, backstabbing, clueless unmotivated fool. Customer service is horrible. training even worse. You want to get into Hazardous waste find any one of the 5 majors that work in the northeast

Pros

This is a fast paced atmosphere that offers a lot of opportunity to create processes and quicklly move forward with projects. This takes the right person to work for a company that has grown so fast, so quickly. Due to the growth, things change often and we often have to shift to support the growing business. Those who do well at Stericycle are those that are motivated by that chance to get your hands in the business and grow professionally. The current CEO, Charlie Alutto, is truly passionate about building a best in class company to work for. There is even a team dedicated to culture within the company. They compensate fairly and the benefits package is competitive. Tons of growth opportunity!

Cons

It runs very lean and can be very stressful at times.
