      Worst employment experience of my life - dishonorable sweatshop of a company - Outside Sales Representative TruGreen Employee Review

      Pros

      The only good thing about working at TruGreen is leaving it in your rear view mirror

      Cons

      Constantly misleading employees, promising 1/2 day Saturdays, lower sales quotas, only to continually tell the staff that they missed the number (regardless of performance) and that they will have to work until 6:00 on Saturday, instead of noon as promised. Sales people have to birddog their commissions to make sure they get paid properly. More weeks with problems than without. Management does not care and does not stand up for their sales staff. Rather - constant brow beating to get better numbers. The company talks about doing the right thing, but lies and misleads its customers as badly as it does to its staff. No concern at all for customer complaints, does not honor Do Not Call registries, badgers both existing and cancelled customers with constant telemarketing, and does not honor its commitment to customers to make good on damaged lawns, or ineffective applications. Simply - a dishonest company.

      Pros

      • Fully remote recruiting role with exposure to high-volume talent acquisition • Opportunity to build sourcing pipelines quickly and strengthen candidate screening efficiency • Experience working with Workday, HireRight, and multi-location hiring teams • Fast-paced environment that builds time management and scheduling discipline

      Cons

      • Extremely high-volume recruiting environment where recruiters are responsible for full-cycle ownership, including post-offer follow-up, with limited operational support. Compensation for recruiters does not consistently align with workload expectations • Interview expectations and documentation practices can vary across team members, creating inconsistencies in candidate tracking and communication • Limited visibility into candidate status when documentation is incomplete or not consistently maintained across recruiters • Significant calendar congestion due to overlapping interviews and multi-location scheduling, which can impact organization and efficiency • Hiring leaders occasionally join candidate calls without prior alignment, which can disrupt the interview flow • Many roles involve physically demanding outdoor work with high daily production expectations, which can make sourcing and conversion more challenging. Compensation for these roles may not always align with market expectations
