Pros

There's some really good people working here. Good benefits plan including 401K. Lots of interaction with customers and with service people. Very social environment.

Cons

Here's where things take a drastic turn for the worse; there's no leadership from the corporate office extending out into field operations. As a result, many of the regional directors are doing their own thing...setting their own policies and procedures. One of the directors has even told his people that they work for him and not for Valet Waste and to forget Valet Waste policies and procedures, they will be held accountable to his way of doing business; his policies and procedures. So what do I do? If I follow company guidelines, I could be reprimanded or even worse because I followed company guidelines and not the guidelines of a single individual. It's scary here too. Everyone seems to be afraid to speak up or disagree because it could cost you your job. You're not allowed to think...just do. When a director speaks, it's law. Do it or else. I'm hoping that some of these situations clear themselves up and that I have the patience to wait it out. Right now, it's just not a good or fun place to work and I don't know how long I can hold out.

Worst company to work with. They are so short that asking for help however when you go over your time they complain that they're over budget. Your short from workers so you ask for help then complain about it being over budget on the hours.
