Pros

An iPhone and you get to sleep in!

Cons

Door to door sales is awful and people hate D2D salesman. You will be yelled at, threatened, disrespected, etc. by homeowners daily. You will be put in the uncomfortable position of soliciting neighborhoods that have “No soliciting” signs posted everywhere. Oh, and the cops will be called on you all the time. Be prepared for long hours, 6 day work weeks, and an awful commission structure that doesn’t even pay out until you hit a threshold. We were told to write positive reviews about TruGreen online even though we weren’t customers- very weird for a corporation to ask their employees to lie. That should tell you quite a bit about upper management and the way TruGreen treats its customers. And lastly, when you go to upper management with your concerns you will get a canned corporate response just like the TruGreen HR person replying to these reviews on Glassdoor. They don’t care about their lower level employees in my opinion.

Pros

Overtime readily available, pretty good about giving time off (with proper notice), benefits

Cons

Unobtainable goals, micromanaging, trucks that need alot of work, when voicing any sort of issue it is never addressed or resolved, terrible medical coverage, constant sales goals when it's not your job, if you're a female you better hope you get on a decent route or you won't be using a bathroom
