Terminix
Head termite tech (Former Employee), Norfolk, VA –
Only care about money will work 6 days a week all hours of the day and night. Terminix will make alot "mistakes" on your paycheck if you don't check everything. You make great money there but isn't worth how you will get treated.

Nine months of fear
outside sales (Former Employee), Aurora, IL –
Pros: setting your own schedule of appointments.
Cons: pressure to sell is high..
I was hired as a outside sales person. The training on pest identification was good but the time given was inadequate.
The manager of the Aurora Illinois location was old school which means that if you were unable to sell what they wanted; you were harrassed with the intention of getting you to quit. The manager I worked under actually told me on several – more...  occasions that when I made a miss statement or mistake that he could "murder me and no court in the country would convict him". I advised him that that type of talk was hate speech but he didn't care. – less

What work/life balance?
Branch Manager (Former Employee), Wilsonville, OR –
Pros: lots of training available
Cons: insular culture, terrible work/life balance, indifferent management
The largest pest control company has employee and customer turnover issues. Company pushes for ever-more production from ever-fewer employees. Something has to be sacrificed: service quality and employee job satisfaction have been seriously impacted. Employees are concerned about having their pay cut or job requirements raised. Job security is a huge – more...  concern at Terminix. It is a good place to receive initial training before moving to a different company or opening your own business. They know it, too. – less

Great place to start a career
Pest Control Technician (Former Employee), Doraville, GA –
My day usualy started out around 6 a.m. Had to be at some commercial places 3 to 4 hours before they opened so thaat the pesticides didnt affect customers. Management changed alot while i was there. I had some of the best co-workers ever. I was a young guy that didnt know anything about pest control and i could call any of the 20 associates i worked – more...  with and they would let me know what to do while i ws out in the field. The hardest part of the job was having to do so much driving, some days i would be in athens and have to drive to jackson, ga and at the end of the day drive back home to gwinnett. – less

A pretty tough sales and compensation structure to be succesful.
Sales Inspector (Current Employee), Redding, CA –
Pros: manage own schedule - sales calls
Cons: use own vehicle for business, poor commission structure
Terminix is always in a hiring mode for sales inspectors because very few people can be successful. You must learn the pest control and termite industry immediately with minimal help. They require you to drive your own vehicle for work. Their labor practices are always right on the edge of being legal and pay labor settlements routinely. It is a tough – more...  nut to crack with the commission being below industry standard. – less
