This would be fine if it didnt all happen at one time to employees, some of which have worked their decades. The Salesmans base pay was removed at several branches forcing them to work more hours to make the same money, and several managers were demoted or just took large paycuts. You only have to pay the fee once, assuming you never cancel. They have introduced a 50 startup fee, but thats so they can the rest of the apps at a reasonable price (theyre still overpriced).
If their understaffed office is on the line with other customers, youll be rolled over to another branch that has nothing to do with your service where they may or may not be able to assist you. If you call your local branch now, chances are you wont get them. Whenever they finished they could go home, so we had techs doing 24 lawns in 4-5 hours which means they spent very little time on the properties.Īll of this means that many techs arent spending the time needed to the job 100. They were told to do a certain amount in production (meaning they had to do 1400 in lawns so ex. Up until this year as well, techs were on a salary with horrible overtime. Its a horrible business strategy and there were a lot of cancelled customers. So someone who received 2 treatments by April, didnt see us again until September, where we came out 6 more times for some people between then and December.Įven going so far as treating some people 2 or 3 times in December It was ridiculous but customers were expected to pay this.

He got in trouble for this once when the Sales Team reported him. Our General Manager would do anything to help employees, but this extended to adding treatments to customers lawns without them (or anyone else at first) knowing just so he could say that his techs sold them so that they met their weekly sales goals.
Our Service Manager (in charge of the techs) was passionate about making our customers are happy, but was constantly forced to water down products to save a buck (this isnt happening as much any more as TruGreen learned in 2012 that you cant keep shorting customers if you want a sustainable business). The Office Manager, while one of the sweetest people I knew, ignored all the highly illegal things going on at the office and kept her mouth shut because she was afraid to lose her job.
