Greenway Waste & Recycling

The job itself is easy if you're in at least decent shape as there typically are a lot of stairs and weight of trash can become heavy if you try to push it.  
The 2 area supervisors are extremely helpful and willing.  The manager however is full of it.  The type of individual who says one thing and means whatever is convenient for him.  
After completing a phone interview, I was able to start work that same evening.  During the interview I explained that I had a family vacation that was 2 months out and explained that I didn't have anyone personally that I could have run my route for me in my absence which was going to be 8 days and that because of the nature of my primary job that there would be the odd times that I'd not make it in either at the respected start time of 8pm and the rarer times that I'd not make it at all but that I'd give plenty of notice (2-4 hours minimal).  I was told by said manager that that'd be no problem and yet after 2 months and only needing covered 2 times prior to vacation was told that my taking the vacation is problematic and that my route would not be held for me.  He stated that I never mentioned anything to him about my vacation.  Needless to say that upon my return from vacation I didn't return to Greenway.

The greenway company is 1 of 4 trash companies that merged to make a larger poorly run company. The owners of the individual companies have shares in the new bigger company. So the incompetent owners are still making issues for the merged entity and cannot be removed. There is no movement up since the previous owners fill all key positions.

From Jan thru march, there have been issues with non payment to collectors on every bi weekly pay period. There solution was to reduce the number of times there is an error by going to pay 1 a month. I am not kidding.

Political in fighting between the old owners is completely disabling the company from performing. For example one of the original owners delayed entering the billing for several properties for more than 5 months to show his displeasure in his current role. This may be part of the reason payroll is always short for some employees.

What is the best part of working at the company?

Showing up to a complex having to clean up after people who belittle you

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Fine. If you don't run I to issue or short of supplies you ask for.  With you will be doing later.  And more you wait. The worse it gets

I  have enjoyed my experience at GreenWay so far. I have flexibility to start my route between 8 PM and 9 PM. I don't have to work Friday or Saturday night. Sunday and Monday nights take me about 2 hours to finish. The rest of the week is cake and I am on my way back home by 9:00 PM. This job allows me to put my truck to use and save $1300 every month. If you like to go to the gym or be active in general, this is the job for you!

GreenWay is always getting better. I love working here and have been here since the start. We have been growing like crazy and we LOVE it! I can not say enough about this company. I love the work life balance and the opportunity to grow and succeed. 

Greenway is a great company to work for with strong leadership.  The culture is client focused and some positions have a flexible split schedule.  If you are looking for a company that has great growth potential with frequent positive change to bring increased efficiency then you'd be happy at Greenway.  

Great place to work as long as you don’t talk to anybody in management. Worked with great management teams that come in and left due to who’s above them. Power hungry individual. Just needs to be caught doing what they’re doing wrong to show the company 

Greenway is at a pivotal moment in the company's growth and it's an exciting company to work for with a great team, a strong work ethic and a growing culture. I would say the hardest part of the job is working with human error and explaining that to our clients when it occurs. 

They mess up the payroll every month and refuse to correct it. You'll never get any help from the company so they serve no purpose. You'll be classified as an independent contractor so you get no benefits, but you'll be under the company's complete control
