Pros

Widely recognized name in the industry, great equipment and environmentally cautious.

Cons

High unrealistic new business quotas, very rigid approval process on acquiring new business which limits your ability to negotiate with potential new customers. More concerned with the share holders than its customers.

Pros

The best team members I have ever worked with. Everyone on the team worked hard, dedicated, smart and driven! Weak management....anyone that was competent left the company!

Cons

The company and it's management doesn't care how much salaried employees work, how many hours, what is going on in your personal life! They own you! I likened it to slave labor! I had enough of working nights, weekends, holidays. I traveled away from my family for months at a time. Just to have Steiner pull all of our annual bonuses AFTER we had already worked for it! That was the final straw! They even hired new employees under the guise of salary compensation packages including bonuses and then after bringing them onboard to tell them NO bonuses. How do they get away with it? I agree with other reviews that Steiner only cares about himself.....not the stupid board members that allow him to continue at the helm with his misguided pompous arrogance that he can continue to raise prices of the existing customers that are left. The company is losing business rather than growing. So unless the board members dump Steiner this company is destined for being bought out by competitors! I'm just glad I got out before that happened. I worked for this company for a very long time and was sad to leave but had to and would advise anyone considering working for this company....THINK AGAIN!

Pros

The benefits are decent but the negative work environment far outweighs the benefits.

Cons

The worst co. I have EVER worked for! No training and extremely high turnover & low morale. Negative work environment. No advancement opportunities, instead managers hire their "friends" without even posting open positions. Customers calling daily to cancel service. Required to upsell products that the customer doesn't need or want. Employees don't have the "tools" necessary to be successful.
