Pros

You make money and benefits weekly paycheck

Cons

You have no work life balance, contrary to what they say. You will be out until it’s done. As far as they’re concerned you have 14 hours to get it done or the landfill is closed then they may still find a way for you to get it done.You have no work life balance, contrary to what they say. You will be out until it’s done. As far as they’re concerned you have 14 hours to get it done or the landfill is closed in the final if you still do get it done. My last day with WM came very abruptly. We were doing the five minute break check RM ignored my red light on my head so I called him back to truck told him the break peddle was leaking air, he informed me it would be fine once it warmed up, it was decided then that no matter what that truck was going Out as far as he wan concerned so I refused and we agreed to part ways. Sadly this company pays its managers with bonuses and that causes nothing but problems because they stop at nothing to get sites to “hold” even if the sites are far from gold. It’s a real shame I always figured WM was my forever home.

Pros

Benefits are good You get a paycheck every two weeks

Cons

Unlimited time off for managers is not accurate. They let you set your hours but your expected to be available for about 18 hours each day and weekends. Workload is too much for the pay. Company micro manages every part of the shop. Don’t complain because you end up a target
