Trugreen Employer Reviews

I learned quit a bit and enjoyed working in different places. When they say that you are not a seasonal worker when they hire you they should stick with what they say.

Its a seasonal sales job with really good pay in a relaxed but serious environment.

You get Hired in Spring, Laid off by Oct. Benefits kick in after 6 Months which you almost never achieve. Management doesn't care about the Employees or the Customers, just achieving numbers. You work 6 days a week, 10 hrs a day, and I once called up for a day off due to a house fire. I was told let the fire department handle it, just come to work. – more... It's a job to take when you are desperate and have nothing else, otherwise stay clear of this lousy Company – less

Shop was busy with all sorts of equipment that needed repair. Ranging from trucks to trailers to blowers. Time management and working with monthly budget was key. Ensuring that crew had reliable equipment was a priority. Management and staff was friendly and supportive. A good place to work for.

A typical day would be getting to work, receive route for day and getting on your way to treating lawns. I learned how to treat a lawn. How to fit problems in a lawn. The Management was okay. They didn't always listen though to what the customer wanted or needed. We worked with junky equipment sometimes and they wouldn't want to buy new stuff. The hardest – more... part of the job was working with breaking equipment. The most enjoyable part of the job was working outside. – less

people w/in the company at the ground level great, but the higher up you go the more of a number you are. Just be ready for lay-off's in the "off season". They often don't tell you about that when hiring.

Involved with all aspects of the job form sales to production to collection.
Instructional classes available
Maintaining a yearly schedule based on weather is an interesting challenge
Attaining goals

Too many changes every other week changing management, positions or procedures

when I first took the opportunity with Trugreen I was most excited about being full time and receiving a much higher pay then what I previously was receiving from my former job. little did I know that the job was more of a temporary job and there was no room to grow.

handling calls for customers wanting to set an appointment in order to recieve treatment on their lawns.

I don't feel like an employee, just a pawn of corporate america. This company only cares about the numbers,you make everyday. No respect for their employees. The business is ran very poorly in my eyes and could use a lot of help in many ways.

It's a job, I wouldn't call it a career. The management will treat you like a little kid at times. It's nice that you can leave the branch and service customers lawns and be outside.

Seasonal job that requires alot of man hours during the heat season but not bright on pay.

Management has a warped sense of what is real and acheivable.

A typical Day at work was answering customers concerns and maintaining a happy relationship between the customer and services they are receiving. I learned how to deal with customer service and how to represent myself on the phone when dealing with a customer. My manager was great to work for, but other management was different. My co-workers were hard – more... working people and joy to work with, hardest part of the job was leaving it, I worked with the people since I was 16yrs old but it was time for me to expand my experiences. The most enjoyable part of the job was the different daily tasks and knowing that a customer was satisfied. – less

TOTAL CRAPHOLE AND PATHETIC PLACE TO WORK.
Managers bet on the new hires, first one to run one off wins the cash.
Biggest wagonload of idiots I have ever worked for.

A typical day at Trugreen includes meeting at the office around 11am, and discussing numbers and goals from the previous day. We then go out introducing our service to home owners, and teaching them how to best take care of their lawn. I've learned to build a repor with someone at this job, management was understanding and concerned. The hardest part – more... was the heavy walking and the most enjoyable being under your own supervision. – less

it was okay, just that you will never have time for your family or your own life.

So they told my guy he was hired AFTER he told them he had 2 misdemenors on his background check and they assured him that he was ok! Then today they FIRE him stating its his background!!! Misleading and ridiculous I must say! Its hard out here dont use ppl to work for u until you find a better replacement!
