I worked at Waste Management full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Team moral , fun environment. Manger was personable and understood work/life balance. Department activities and team building events.
Cons
Book of business can be too much causing stress. Overtime not permitted so you had to sometimes work through lunch to get things done on time. Manager understood work life balance which I think upper management needed to understand more. Upper management didn’t really care about the clients and only cared about the bottom line and keeping clients money.
Advice to Management
Have a better understanding of work/life balance. Also put your clients first and they’ll stay around. Keeping their money to make your numbers look good isn’t the best idea when client specifically ask for it back.
