In all fairness i only worked for the company a very short time. I was told the facility manager , one driver, and other office help had just left, so they were going thru an adjustment period. During training, the driver i was with had very little good to say about the company. He did show me how to bypass the safety feature on the shredding truck so you could continue to load after the truck was at full capacity. He would do this till the rear doors started to buckle out. I reminded him if the truck was overloaded that it was his responsibility. He smiled and shrugged. When we scaled and unloaded at the recycling facility, it was easy to calculate how much it was over wieght. My "trainer" didnt care. They use small under CDL trucks. The truck they had for me to drive had an issue with a hydraulic sensor and needed to be fixed. I was told there was not a local company that serviced that type of system. But they could get the part. I volunteered to do the repair, and succeeded in doing that. When on the route, many of the customers i went to were unhappy with the company and were mean and sometimes rude, I didnt stay long. It didnt make any sense to do so. 

I worked my hump off in a very dysfunctional and unethical local office.  Corporate seemed to get tired of all the legitimate concerns expressed with office culture.  Laid off in Feb due to COVID-19, and was accused of running up $3400+ in "internet streaming" bill on company cell and laptop (used hotspot on what I was told to be unlimited plan).  Company threatened to call police if I didn't return equipment, that I was never told to return, as they projected bringing me back end of April.  Weekly 'check in' calls from boss in Toronto led me to believe I was coming back.  I am deeply hurt by all that has transpired during this health/economic crisis, and never worked harder to earn business and respect of team during my tenure.  Feel completely betrayed, but understand that this very young and underdeveloped corporate culture was likely heading towards failure due to their lack of holding office personnel accountable for their behaviors.  Sad ending indeed, as I built good relationships with many in my office and at corporate.

The more broken trucks the later you’ll be done. No regular maintenance on the trucks. Definitely a short term job. Random raise once a year. Bonuses are taxed. Max bonus is $200 a month I believe.  No actual truck dispatcher. Job is easy and the best part is clocking out. You don’t have MLK , Presidents’ Day , or Juneteenth off. So if you working on those days you probably won’t get 8 hours unless you bulls***.dont call out on the days either because apparently you’ll make less money then if you actually worked even for a few hours. And when all the trucks are operating correctly you’ll make probably less then 45 hours a week. So I would say this job is for retired people who don’t wanna work hard and just receive a check or the younger generation that want fast money and to have trucking on there resume. This company does not feel like it’s a multimillion dollar company more like barely a million. 

Great place to work where you get treated like family. The owners are very family-oriented and the turnover is very minimal. Many of the employees have been with the Houston location for years. A professional fleet services company maintains trucks and the franchise owners continue to invest in new equipment. Trucks are equipped with PTO driven industrial shredders that are operated curbside for clients' onsite shredding. Most days start early, around 7am, and for the drivers, there is plenty of overtime for the truck operators who want overtime. Most days end around 5pm. Management has an open door policy and does listen to its employees when issues arise. 

Teamwork is stressed as the number one focus but new people are outsiders. Expect to have your questions answered hours later or even the next day even if time sensitive. Even though hours and days were spent from the first day on the job with IT because of crashing Outlook, the computer was not replaced. Expectations were changed instead to do the job (not possible when the work comes from what had crashed). There is no actual training manual or procedure but you are expected to follow specific scripts and templates and be in step with the team members who are remote. The supervisor is smart and engaging, funny and encouraging. The sales team is helpful and warm, always there to lend a hand. Operations is dynamic and colorful. 

ISO2000 company providing boutique shredding of secure documents. Small company,but growth/service well managed over time. Still learning the ropes,but owner is trying. Good field of service work. Wear earplugs. Customers range from doctors,lawyers and other professional associations to homeowners who don't want someone ID thefting their bank accounts. Customers are the best part of the job.

Proshred is a small office that is friendly and fast-growing company-
A typical day at work involves greeting clients who bring in their shredding (small amounts) - my day includes posting checks, making deposits, collection calls, creating statements and reconciling bank and credit card accounts.
I have learned about finance and also have a deeper knowledge of accounting.
Co-workers are great! We get along fabulously and help each other out when needed. 
The hardest part of the job is collections from late-payers.
The most enjoyable part of the job is the small office atmosphere and an easy-going boss.

Lots of driving box truck in traffic.  Truck has built in document shredder and is loud when standing next to truck.  Job is very physical.  Retrieve paper documents from business offices, doctors offices, hospitals, industrial warehouses and take them to the truck in the parking lot and shred them onsite.  Routes can change as the day goes on and you may work 8 hours one day and 11 hours the next.  You will never know exactly what time you’ll be finished at end of the day due to work load and traffic while driving.  Hard to have a good daily work life balance.  
You will have to do weekend shred events so you will work most Saturdays. 

I am a full time college student at GMU, working on earning my bachelors degree in Events a Management as quickly as I can. Planning events has always been a serious passion of mines, so I figured why not make it a career. I feel that with my experience, I'd make a perfect candidate for any company looking to hire a part time event coordinator, assistant or even a receptionist at an event planning company. My hours are flexible, I am able to learn new things and adapt quickly to a new environment. Working with people and as a team player has been a strength of mines in the past and I plan to keeping it that way.
