Copia Resources

● Work-life balance
12-16 hours every monday....route dispatch (MANAGEMENT) is very poor and inefficient creating long days on other four as well.

● Pay & benefits
very underpaid for amount of labor required to complete tasks.

● Job security and advancement
they seem to only promote based on race/ethnicity.

● Management
no one at this company has had any previous experience in their current position prior to hired here. Office staff is highly incompetent. Field supervisor was as lazy as one man can be. They have hired another supervisor who has better work ethic but the lazy supervisor is still heee and highly favored by admins for some strange reason.

● Culture
Understaffed for past three months. Some drivers are forced to complete routes alone when this is not a one person job.

● Overall
If I could rate 0 stars I would. From Human Resources to field supervisors, no one in management has showed competence or a genuine concern for anyone in the field. From health, safety, transportation, ensuring breaks are given etc...every vehicle in the fleet has either oil change lights on, low tire pressure lights or tail lights out.

I truly enjoy my job and the work we do. A typical day is fast-paced and engaging, with constant problem-solving and collaboration. No two days are the same, which keeps the work interesting and motivating.

I’ve learned a great deal in this role, especially around leadership, accountability, and strategic thinking. The job has pushed me to grow professionally and take on meaningful responsibility.

Management is supportive and sets clear expectations while trusting the team to execute. The workplace culture is driven, collaborative, and focused on continuous improvement. Hard work is recognized, and ideas are encouraged.

The hardest part of the job is the pace and high level of responsibility, but that challenge is also what makes it rewarding. The most enjoyable part is seeing the impact of the work and being part of a team that genuinely cares about what we’re building.

This company will work work you half to death, between 10-18 hours a day . Management is horrible, always looking to jump down drivers throats about every little thing. Employee turn over is ridiculous drivers and helpers quit left and right which causes more stress for the remaining employees picking up the slack and another reason for management to jump down you're throat, and they will fire you on a dime if you say or do anything they don't like.  Also drivers and helpers are very hostile towards each other and most of the employees are burnt out drug addicts trying to keep up with the hours and demands. 

Though the reviews are wonky, I loved my time at Copia. To be successful, clean really good, break down big items & take alot of pictures. This job is def not for the lazy or people who can't think critically. Your by yourself most of the time so you can control how your day will look like. Mondays suck but the rest of the week is awesome if you set yourself up for success. Only thing that kills this job is management; they ride you when the problems stem from their funding. Be early and you'll be their favorite. 

Do not work for this company. They will treat you like garbage, and expect you to thank them for it. Ridiculous forced over time. Upwards of 16 hours which are not uncommon. They do not care about you, and expect you to destroy yourself with a smile on your face while they will actively try and throw you under the bus to protect themselves. Severely underpaid for the often disgusting and intense labor that is required. Management is terrible and will make your job harder for no other reason than to justify their position. 

This is a great place to work if you’re willing to put in the effort. Hard work and proactive leadership at all levels are recognized and rewarded and there’s a lot of opportunity for growth as the company continues to expand. The company is also flexible and supportive when it comes to personal commitments, which makes it easier to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Overall, the culture feels very much like a family - supportive, collaborative, and invested in each other’s success.

and cleaning up dumpster sites then this is the job for you. until you get overworked, or if a bunch of hires come in at once, your workload lightens (along with your pay) because overtime pay was the only incentive to work. until the tax situation made it not worth doing any overtime. you also get free stuff from when people threw stuff away but none of it is worth anything unless you have a route in a high income area. I've seen the craziest things thrown away. good tvss, couches, laptops. etc. 

If I could put 0 stars I would. 
Not a good place to work at, the pay is not worth it, the other locations get paid more then the concord office but do the same job. And have a supervisor that does not know what he’s doing but no one else wants that stress. And there definitely is favoritism. If you have a family this job is not for you, due to working more then having a life 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Nothing, the will make you work 14 hours a day and expect you to be there the next day to work another 14 hours.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The force you to work more than 70 hours a week and you can't even call out if you feel tired

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Really toxic

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
14 hours of forced work

This company is the biggest joke there is . No safety program what so ever . They do not provide ppe it's on the worker to buy there own . I got stuff in my eye jumping in the dumpster to smash garage ( yes you do that ) and was told it was my job to provide my own safety glasses and eye wash .
