The Vilonia, AR location is managed poorly. Techs are expected to go above and beyond while the management team misleads, takes advantage of, and verbally/mentally/emotionally abuses its employees. Bringing an issue to light is met with gaslighting and red herrings. 

I also think climate change will quickly make this profession a thing of the past. It's only a matter of time before legislation stamps out the misuse of pesticides/fertilizers/herbicides. Choose your future wisely. 

Other than that, the guys are great. I truly did work with a wonderful group of people. Unfortunately, literally everything else about the job sucked. 

I was brought into the mix for my knowledge and abilities in my old sector and abilities to lead. Was brought into a branch that was failing and asked to clean it up. Regional management advised they would make absolutely sure to  set me up for success with guaranteed training lasting at least a month. I was given seven whole business days  at another branch that didn't even operate the same way that I was expected too when I was taken to my own branch. I would advise you to be extremely careful of all the promises they throw at you during the interview. They can and will spit you out 

Management is awful! I was only there one week and they let me go because I had an emergency health problem and had to go to the ER for a few hours. I was cleared to go back to work the next day then they Decided to "let me go" because I missed work one day. They don't like to train new people and talk about other employees behind their backs!. Do yourself a favor and don't work for them. It's also only $700 a week before taxes are taking out! 

Get to work get work loaded on phone start working get yelled at and disrespected about everything  you do wrong and get no acknowledgement about doing good or going above they always focus on the negative and overload you with work and keep adding more and more bc of this month's new campaign for truck sales or upsales...I'm  technician not a salesperson 

I love my Career at Fairway. Very family oriented. The owners and managers treat everyone the same from the janitor to the top! Superb overall, and you get to make people’s properties look great and make them happy. Ample opportunity to make extra money with sells and advancement opportunities through out. Two weeks off paid vacation at the end of the year in addition to other vacation.

The job itself is not bad at all, it’s the people. Often felt overlooked, most people would walk past me and not say anything but greeted the next. Even though the pay is good and you got monthly incentives, I don’t think they pay their workers nearly enough for the work they expect out of you. 

Great company to work for and you get lots of breaks throughout the year hates to leave but was moving away. Great benefits for yourself and family. And long holiday breaks so you can spens time with family. And you get a raise every year.

Don't expect anything to change once you realize how broken their system is (Bham Office). I hear Little Rock is much better. Great overall company but individual management's unwillingness to look in the mirror is almost solely responsible for high turnover. 

a typical day here is usually about 9-12 hours its physical and fast paced. I learned to push myself a little more than normal and various information about lawns. management here is good co workers are awesome. hardest part of the job was learning your area and dealing with the half time overtime pay.(which is why I left)

The work culture is unstable and unsustainable - auxiliary benefits get axed as soon as things get uncomfortable for the bottom line, and management avoids honest discussions about present and future concerns. Turnover is frequently discussed, but burn out is the leading cause, and is ignored entirely.
