How employees describe working at Casella Waste Systems

It is a place with challenging work that will make you feel fulfilled every day. They pay well and have a culture that gives a lot of autonomy, which some people enjoy and others dislike.

Honestly when I was hired told by scale house operator or some sort of supervisor after 90 days I would receive a raise if im eligible for one I should have walked out the door then but I ignored her ignorant comment and took the job after 90 days I got a raise I never missed a day of work

We communicate well with each other

The driver pay is good. The Townsend Delaware yard has badly maintained trucks and filling out the morning and afternoon vehicle inspection reports is pointless because nothing ever gets fixed correctly everything is bandaided to keep the trucks on the road. They have a huge driver turnover

The job itself is fine, however management too busy protecting their friends and letting the lazy employees do only what they feel like doing.
