Pros

They feed you well during training and provide monthly team member meals. There are some good people that work there. Truly want to do the right thing by the customer but not always given the tools and support to do so.

Cons

CEO means well but not in touch with company nor sales deprtment. Has people in positions to say "yes" to him but no one who actually able to lead this company into greatness. Middle management (ISR's) are not capable of using the operating systems to better assist the Inside Sales Reps. The Inside Sales Managers are more interested in acting cool to each other and the attractive ladies in the office than doing their jobs. The company hires "yes men" in roles of power. I have worked for companies where nepotism was an issue. Those companies are 100 times better than Mobile Mini Inc. As mobile mini pay and takes care of "it's favorites". And from top to bottom. Branch to NSC their is an issue with favoritism. I am amazed that some of the people in charge have jobs. But then only at this company could some of these managers (ISM's) ever be considered for management in the first place. This is the worse company I have ever worked for. And the worse management in place I have ever seen in a corporation or worse publicly traded company. They care more about buying new foreign cars than doing right by their employees. And i work here. Sad. Complaints fall on death ears. Push hard working employees out constantly. Why their turnover is so high. Technology; i.e. phone systems, contract creation system and more go down constantly. For this to be a publicly traded company and not have up to date software and telecommunications is a joke. Inside sales job that they want you to do outside sales work on your off time. If you want to be successful during paid hours. No work life balance at mobile mini.

Pros

Company offers pretty good benefits, great work hours. Good parking. The staff is nice out going and professional. The company spends a lot on money on new system software and up dated phone systems.

Cons

Company focuses on Metrics far more than necessary. They say the customer is valued, but this does not show in the over all work practices. This is one of the main reasons for my departure.
