Pros

I started in 2010 as an auditor. Emphasis on customer service was spectacular. The office staff were very gracious and went out of their way to assist all members of staff and all customers. The best environment ever!

Cons

Corporate took over our location and pitted everyone against each other. My job, while full and fulfilling in the beginning was chaotic and confusing in the end. New phone systems pushed our local customers into the corporate spiral nightmare created by an out of touch CEO. Outdated computer systems and frustrated management only accelerated their demise. In the end I had enough. You spend half the day sending the same report to 20 different members of "management", while ignoring customer complaints. Sales staff were encouraged to lie to get a sale. I was encouraged to have them pay for a year of service upfront, and inevitably Trugreen would mess it up.

Pros

• Fully remote recruiting role with exposure to high-volume talent acquisition • Opportunity to build sourcing pipelines quickly and strengthen candidate screening efficiency • Experience working with Workday, HireRight, and multi-location hiring teams • Fast-paced environment that builds time management and scheduling discipline

Cons

• Extremely high-volume recruiting environment where recruiters are responsible for full-cycle ownership, including post-offer follow-up, with limited operational support. Compensation for recruiters does not consistently align with workload expectations • Interview expectations and documentation practices can vary across team members, creating inconsistencies in candidate tracking and communication • Limited visibility into candidate status when documentation is incomplete or not consistently maintained across recruiters • Significant calendar congestion due to overlapping interviews and multi-location scheduling, which can impact organization and efficiency • Hiring leaders occasionally join candidate calls without prior alignment, which can disrupt the interview flow • Many roles involve physically demanding outdoor work with high daily production expectations, which can make sourcing and conversion more challenging. Compensation for these roles may not always align with market expectations
