Pros

Terminix has decent benefits and the pay is good. Basically, if you are self motivated, you will do well. Terminix holds weekly training sessions.

Cons

You never receive the chemical you ask for in advance. Sometimes not getting any chemical for weeks at a time. Your pay can be affected by things out of your control. For instance, your pay is affected by customers that cancel that you never even serviced. Management treats employees like inmates. I have seen technicians get belittled daily. Managers never answer their phones. They complain when having to print things or move stops. Rules are constantly changed or ignored. I have been told by people in management that they do not care. Employee Morale is very low.

Pros

People are friendly, work as an OSP is interesting in that you meet new people all the time. These relationships have all been positive.

Cons

You must provide you own vehicle and carry your cost of gas for 60 days as well as insurance and maintenance...which you absorb totally. This is worth about $800 a month in costs to you. Pay is regular, but you are paid in arrears, usually 60 days after you have earned it for the company. Gas is reimbursed at 2% of your prior month's sales. Though the company is very technology oriented, the management sill follows the last generation of sales follow up...everyone must physically meet their manager each morning. All the information the manager needs is available on the computer which is carried by the manager. Even the GPS location of the OSP. (Outside Sales Person) Upper Management does not know how to use the technology, sad! Some OSP's are tasked to run termite letters, which only pay $10, but that is in 60 days. The cost of these letters to the OSP is about $50 in gas, vehicle costs and time preparing them. The company charges $85 to $150, half of any cost should go to OSP. This should be strictly a MANAGER's job. Managers have gas cards and company vehicle and are a salary plus an annual bonus.
