Pros

Good benefits with some good employee incentives.

Cons

Boy, where does one begin? This is the worst company I have ever worked for and it was through acquisition which made the entire thing that much worse. I have worked for large companies before, but this one made me question how large business operates robbing people blind and disposing of them like trash. I am not saying they actually rob your money, it's your time. The lies they sell to have people stay and help THEM transition only to then lay off the very employees who should have been given chances. The practices of Waste Management are that of the typical entirely too much overhead and completely undermine all those at the bottom. Granted, I can't speak for the practices they have when a person actually begins with their company not by way of acquisition. However, acquisitions are very delicate. It is never the employees fault that a company decides to sell. Why is it that the short end of the stick is the one extended to those who work hard and help companies grow only for those companies to toss them aside? I blame both companies, my former employee pre-acquisition and Waste Management post. How this company came to be so successful boggles my mind because I worked throughout the acquisition enough to have seen the lot of the issues with their business practices.

Pros

to be honest no pros.

Cons

Working here was stressful, I was starting to deal with anxiety and panic attacks especially when dealing with my Supervisor who was awful since the moment he arrived. I'm one to always be respectful no matter what but at some point you loose respect and you can't allow anyone to disrespect doesn't matter if he's your boss. They fire the hard working people while keeping the ones that do more damage in the work place. Ones that could hurt other employees yet nothing was done while firing the good ones. The Manager that arrived before I was let go was even worst! I wasn't sure what I needed to let her know or not know because since day one when I communicated with her she just brushed me off and never got back to me about anything or she told me to take her off all the emails she was attached to. Then threaten me on an email if I didn't show up to work when I had requested a day off. I mean there's a lot more I can say about both of them. Now about HR... after I was let go I requested termination documents and personnel file in January I waited a month to do a follow up got the run arounds then I was told they were going to get back to me. I waited and did another follow up they ignored my email I did another follow up and got ignored again we are now in April still nothing.
