Leadership cares about the concerns of the customers as well as the employees.
Review from Sales Dept
Working together and helping out as needed
respect time off and benefits
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Dependable and unlimited. Consistent and appropriate
The commission is good if you work hard
The health insurance sucks. The dental insurance is great. The 401 is decent but not great. The ancillary services are decent but not great. All in all I would write that a seven out of 10.
Ability to earn commissions along with a competitive salary.

Everything and waiting on pres club
What are some of the best things about your team?
I don't have to see them often
Professionals doing what's right at every opportunity
They work hard to get jobs done even if we can't. We all feel the same after every job as if we worked extremely over worked and they try to help as much as possible. Communication skills is on point with the technicians except management.
Review from Operations Dept
I work with some very good techs
Always trying to help one another
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
freedom to excel and the recognition
Coworkers and the customers you need
I genuinely like the service industry and that is what our company is supposed to be founded on. However, constant need for implementation of products, programs, and production interfering programs, makes it hard for us to service customers as we are too busy working through programs and monitoring.
teamwork, communication and interaction among coworkers.
Review from Operations Dept
From Branch Manager down, there is an attempt at the "Brotherhood Motto". Mostly. They ask about your family and say family comes first, it doesn't always feel true, but they say it
Review from Customer Success Dept
What did you like most about the interview process?
it was straightforward and almost as if they was just wanting someone to fill a spot. Not that they really cared about you. It was like they just needed a body.
The amount of time the branch manager took to get to know me.
Review from Sales Dept
I didnt know the truth of how bad the culture is
The person that did it was very nice
It was straight forward no sugar coating
What makes you most happy at work?
helping people that look like me
Knowing im helping someone solve an issue
When corporate leaves us alone.
Freedom and some managers don't micromanage and other ones do so it's a double edge sword. Being off at a decent time like 3 PM, but they really suck and want you to work till 6 PM sometimes and you don't get paid between stops
Love the competitive nature...I'm in sales. Love meeting new people everyday and also interacting with my customers.
Review from Sales Dept
What do you like best about your company?
I like the structure that Orkin has built over the years, but the people at the Regional level are difficult to work with and unreasonable. Shady even.
