Vantaggi

Termite swarm season(February - May)

Svantaggi

You work 12 hour days and you only have a base salary of 500 dollars and no overtime pay, You have to pay for the car that they provide for you, During the winter season business slows down tremendously, company prefers for you to persuade all customers with products that they don't necessarily need, do not expect to have any Saturdays off the company states that if an inspector is behind goal then they are required to work every Saturday no exceptions, you do create your own schedule but, it's not how they make it seem you will be required to leave your home at a certain time and go home at a certain time(it is not free range), you are basically doing three peoples jobs and only getting paid 500 dollars for it, if you don't sell you will be reprimanded no questions asked, if you do sale they are going to question on why you didn't sale more, they do not care about selling with integrity, if your Gordon Gekko(Wall Street Film) or Jordan Belfort(Wolf of Wall Street Film) then don't work here, if your actually a person that prefers to address customers true needs and sell with the intent to only benefit the customer and not just your own wallet like they prefer for you to be then this job is not for you.

Vantaggi

Good pay, opportunities for sales depending on region

Svantaggi

Orkin cares more about quantity over quality. If you care about doing a good job, don't work here. They will load your day up with tons of jobs and not enough time to do them (or do a good job anyways.) Management lives in their own bubble, and communicates poorly. I transfered to a new region and all services were a mess. Customers who have had Orkin for a year plus had homes still infested with pests. Prior techs hadn't cleaned any cobwebs, never cleaned webbing off siding or eaves. It was embarrassing. Commercial services weren't any better. I believe prior techs were just scanning stations and leaving. Orkin only cares if you punch through reports and collect money. If you also bring up customers that are being overcharged, management will never fix that either. Benefits also weren't great and quite expensive. Manager would also use slurs like the R-word despite knowing I had an autistic child. Just a gross place with gross values.
