Eco-Pan

I haven't been with Eco-pan for long.  They treat me better then my current employer of almost a decade ever did.  Which is saying a lot!

They started me out with competitive pay and I received a pay raise within the 90 days of starting.  They have a great referral plan and also have bonus programs for those that are eligible. 

I haven't had an issue with keeping work and personal life separate.  If you need to deal with something personal or need vacationing, they are great to work with to make it happen.  They definitely try to be flexible.

I enjoy coming into work.  Every day is different depending on what's going on.  I never get bored!  Sometimes it can be stressful, but the staff, co-workers, and management team make up for it.   They are willing to support and help you out in any way they can.  Management is very supportive and caring.  They want to see you succeed! 

The most enjoyable part of my job is being able to be myself, laughing with those around me, and being part of a fantastic team.   I'm thankful that I found them!

I have been at this job for about 4 months trust me when I say it is a garbage job. Basically u pick up concert pans at the job site all day but the problem is when it gets cold u ant got know work.

They have an old macks truck that has over 400,000 miles on the and the brakes don't work in some of them.

The pay is at 27hr but they well try to low ball u at 25hr.

I would talk about the management but the one manger the had quit back in September.

U do not get 40 hrs if they tell u that make sure they put it in writing.

The health care is united health care, but it has 2000$ deductable 

And management spend all day riding around in a company truck fellowing u not looking for work

 So if u have any experience on how to use a crane or u have a class a or b just look somewhere else because u well be wasting your time like I waste mine.

A Yea I all most forgot to tell u they do not have an actual office they rent a lot from someone else and the supplies are in a tractor-trailer and trust me its sucks.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part of working here is collaborating with coworkers who share knowledge and help each other succeed

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Dealing with missing pay, ignored complaints, and being punished for speaking up was extremely stressful

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The environment was stressful, with management showing favoritism, ignoring complaints, and punishing those who spoke up.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day at the company meant long hours with unpaid sitting time, skipped or shortened breaks, and constant stress from retaliation whenever concerns were raised. Management ignored safety issues, failed to pay for full training hours, and violated privacy by using dashcam audio recordings without employee consent.

Typical day at work was trying to repair trucks that had been half way fixed for years and now needing major repairs. They have no spare trucks so the trucks can be downed and properly repaired. Diagnostic equipment is old and out dated. Burned through 7 mechanics in 8 years. Management will blame you for not being able to fix the trucks even with their lack of tooling and diagnostic equipment. And if you do what I did and quit offering a 2 week notice, they'll send you home that day. Also they will lie to your new employer about your job performance to get your job offer taken away. Ask me how I know. 

I spent years of my life here, there's NO advancement opportunity period.   New employees without any experience will start at  a higher rate of pay then you despite you being the one to train them because they desperately need workers.  
 They make you feel like you ALWAYS owe them a favor, your consistantly treated like a second class citizen in comparison to office personnel.  A dime a dozen, heard it a million times until they're replacing a dozen dimes at once.  Turn over rate is very high when it never used to be. It became corporate,  once this happend it took a nose dive and has been there since.  

Working at eco-pan is really quite simple. If you work hard and come to work you will be considered a great employee. A couple of times I’ve called my boss and explained I needed off early. They have always been very understanding. 

You can kind of set your own schedule. Typically starting between 5:30-7:00 and off by 3-4. There is longer and shorter days of course. 

Unlike some of the other reviews, the pleasant grove, UT management makes sure you get at least 40 hours a week. I’ve been here over a year and really enjoy it. 

It’s hard work, but fulfilling. 

Lots of driving, lots of time at the dump.  Very dirty job. You can’t make any personal appointments. Company is so greedy. Trucks are in bad shape, always broke down or leaking hydraulic fluid. You will get a ticket when having a DOT inspection. The company is more worried about their CSA score, never mind that it goes on your license as well. Planning driver routes is bad. All of the dispatchers are pretty good, but management will not let them do their job correctly. When you think you’re done with your day, you’re not. They keep adding jobs to you. 

I enjoy the job. I like driving and working outside. It gets hot in Texas. Most people can't handle it, It doesn't bother me. Some days are tough, some days are easy. Management is great. They have your back. We work hard and our main focus is safety. Houston is the toughest market in the United States.  No rules and no regulations for what we do. Some companies want to do the right thing but most do not. Great company to work for. 

Lied about hours, bonuses, and equipment condition. You will constantly work with broken equipment even if it's not DOT compliant. The bonuses are an absolute joke, few hundred bucks at most. You will work long hours and cover other drivers stops even if they are completely capable of doing them. And you will never be appreciated. Stay away, it's a super toxic company.

You work in the construction sector, some days are grueling others are easier. You work outside it's a dirty job. Management is great, they have your back and coach you on mistakes and keep it real with you no office politics it anything like that. There are expectations but nothing out of the ordinary. Dirty hands clean money, I'm happy where I'm at and look forward to what's to come with our branch!
