Pros

The shop was like a brotherhood, but only because management lacked the leadership it took; so everyone was in the same boat minus a few people due to nepotism.

Cons

Where do I even begin? The branch I worked for (Anaheim) worked us like dogs 60+hour weeks, with routes 40-50 miles away from home with 17-22 stops a day. Which they had promised upon employment that we would all work relatively close home and we would have 19 stops at most. Management not only lied to us as the applicators but also lied to the customers telling them that our products were harmless. They would also have us spray the property no matter what i.e. if the back gate was locked or a pet was out they would have us spray the front and charge them for a completed service and would say “that’s why we offer free reservices”. Towards the end of my time there the managers became so desperate that they would send us to properties weeks earlier than what the clients had agreed upon (mind you every client is in a legally binding contract). They claim to be there for the clients and the environment but they care for neither. I would not recommend this company to anybody

Pros

Pay and overtime is great, management is decent, you run your own show- upsell, identify pest problems, know your chemicals, different methods, request inventory products

Cons

It's a lot of hours in summer. You will hate spiderwebs. I enjoy seeing many beautiful gardens and getting to know the local wasps, birds, and lizards- but it's not for everyone. Don't trust everything management says, and bring up issues early and with tact.
