Interstate Waste Services

What a typical day at work was you clocked in and you got on the phone with the customers. There will be many calls about missed garbage is which is sad. What I’ve learned is that it was all about favoritism at this company in particular. Workplace culture I found that on the floor they will be conversations. I had no respect for people on the phones. The hardest part of the job was trying to find the right systems being strained quickly and thrown onto the floor with all these different calls. The most enjoyable thing about the job was that it was in a building with other offices, and other companies I just think the job could have more diverse races, more training, less favoritism among the bosses and some employees and better communication as far as training every day there Was different training with different supervisors which could be confusing. There should be a system in place that helps with training. Also, I felt like they said you could ask questions but once Ya cooks questions after training, they look at you funny. I honestly think this job trains you to make broken promises to the customers about things like Miss garbage is broke. Garbage is it was honestly disheartening working for them.

Working at Interstate Waste Services involves very quick-paced manual labor. Strength and speed is needed to be an efficient helper in the company. Unless roads are shut down from a weather advisory, you’re at work, whether it’s sunny, raining or snowing. The job will keep you physically fit if you work hard enough. The management, however, is poor. Nobody is on the same page as the next when it comes to tasks and directions. Some office workers are very manipulative and will lie to you to make you happy, when in turn, what they said will actually get you in trouble. Other than the office workers, all drivers and helpers are always kind and caring. Drivers will always look out for your safety, but will also push you to be quicker and give you tips on how to better your performance. Other helpers will share little quirks they have found that helps them perform better as well. Until it is time to go to your routes, the conversations between drivers and helpers are very amusing and will most likely bring a smile to your face.

I started working at Interstate Waste in 2019, and in the beginning, it was a great place to work. Things changed drastically after COVID when the company was trying to bounce back. Unfortunately, management took a turn for the worse—micromanagement became excessive, and leadership lacked consistency. The turnover rate was high, with many employees not staying long, mostly due to the constant shifts in procedures and lack of stability.

On the bright side, the pay was solid. But at the end of the day, no paycheck is worth sacrificing your mental and physical health.
