Service Sanitation, Inc

What is the best part of working at the company?
The insurance is real good and the pto is real good

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The bosses only care if the work gets done. They play favoritism way too much. Hard to get a good raise no matter how hard you work.trucks break down left an right because they only patch the issue instead of fixing it right the first time. During the months of may june july and august prepare not to have a life outside of work..

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
They play favoritism there is no way to move up if they dont want you to..they only train you on what they want you to know an nothing more 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Clock in get my route find my truck do a pretrip on my truck then i will stock my truck get gas from the yard load units an/or hand wash station then go to the dump to empty the truck if need be then start my route. Pull up to your site sign an date the sticker then stock toilet paper an hand sanitizer and blue in the tank. then scrub the unit down then and rince them off an on to the next site until your route is finished.. about 30-45 units per route

if you work hard, dont show you work to hard. or they will take advantage of that. they will basically tell you you will be in the union if you work hard. your there as a temp until they feel you can handle the work load. i worked here for 4 months. i worked super hard. i was so fast at my job that i was doing the work of 2 men at the same time. id have 24 stops in a day while others had 10 maybe 12.  i wrote email after email to my boss telling him how much i liked to work here and how can i get full time to get into the union. but getting pilled on with more and more work daily while everyone received less then half of what i was getting. i went to my bosses to show the how i was doing and all said i was doing great and they where happy to have me.. but then they broke me, i came home exhausted working more and harder then everyone around me. because they all where union so they could take there time. i broke down and quit. i received a lot of calls if we could work it out, or what they could do to do better. as i told them, i think that they need to be more organized, and aware of hard working people. i told them i won't be returning but thank you for opportunity.

This is for those who like overtime money and a fast passed job. You work 50+ hours at times especially during the summer, checks are awesome during the summer time as well. Management is decent. The manager comes out and checks on us every once in a while and also jokes around at times as well. I learned the task pretty quick too anybody can probably do this job if you commit to it. Cleaning portable restrooms isn't the greatest job in the world but it's something and it's decent money too. Also if you have never driven a CDL vehicle with a trailer this job will train you with that if you want to be a driver, but I'd recommend start in the yard at first. I also forgot to mention that the typical work day is you will clean portable restrooms and move them to the clean pile with a forklift.

Service Sanitation is a great company to work for. I remember being impressed when I began my career here on how professional the company was run and how passionate everyone was about their work. The management team and my coworkers were very welcoming and there was a profound sense of teamwork in each department. I knew quickly that this was the company and community I wanted to be a part of. I have been part of the SSI family for over 17 years now and maintaining an atmosphere of inclusiveness, teamwork, and family across the company is still high priority. A huge part of our life is spent at work and it feels great to wake up each morning and look forward to coming to work. 

It's like a trade school,  you are always learning new skills ie forklift , skid steer, operating different types of vacuum trucks, cleaning, loading, unloaded and storing portable restrooms, transfer waste from vacuum trucks to holding tankers while fueling, preparing and stocking trucks with chemicals , salt, toilet paper and much much. Management is cool, stay busy and stay out of the way. Coworkers are great. The company is very forgiving, it's takes a lot to get fired, just own what you did, don't like about it and you'll be fine. There will also be times where you will go out and help set up events in Chicago, or clean at another yard.

Great place to work if you're dedicated to a working in a fast-paced environment, willing to work overtime in the summer, and enjoy interacting with people via phone and email. Culture is very laid back. Managers are open to feedback, both positive and negative. Keep in mind this is a seasonal industry so the workload is on both ends of the spectrum. Summer is very busy winter is less busy. Company continues to grow so there always seems to be more to do. Growing company that still feels like you're working in a family-owned small business.

Service is a growing company that is always looking to develop their team and care about their people so much too. I am thrilled to be part of that kind of environment! They were upfront with me about what to expect when interviewing for the job and I was excited to accept the challenge. I work with a great team that all work toward the same goals and are committed to getting things done. We enjoy getting the impossible done each day and the reward of figuring it all out, especially after an event-packed weekend. I love to show up to work with this group every day!


	
 Nate Staley – Dispatch Manager

I joined Service as a route planner and have moved up to a management position. I have been given the ability to show my talents and have been able to develop and grow with Service. Every day is different coming into work, and I love it! During my time here I’ve been able to see so many different events from behind the scenes. It’s been a gratifying experience to be able to make multiple events happen and see the result of the hard work time and time again. I have been with this company since 2012 and I feel like I’m part of the family.

Since I started working here, I feel like I’m always finding new ways to perfect my craft.  It’s exciting too because I’m using the things, I’ve learned to offer creative solutions to challenging problems. Without sounding cliché, I feel determined when I arrive at work each day. I feel like the work I do is making an impact within the organization and that’s an awesome feeling.  Oh yes, and did I mention…I love getting to wear jeans to work each day!

When you see a continually growing company that is family oriented, you know you have to be a part of it. I have been here for a while now, and it has been nothing but a great experience here, from being able to have an awesome schedule to a challenging work environment that I enjoy. The team that I work with is a great group of people that all work together and aren’t afraid to ask each other questions. I’ve never once got up dreading to come to work, every day is always enjoyable to me.
