Amazing

One of the best places I’ve ever worked, good leadership and willingness to teach others. No doubt with management’s willingness to help someone out when needed.

Productive

The outcome of any workflow environment depends on the person and if it is suitable for your needs. Is it the best, no, could it be better, sure. But so is any job. It is what you make of it.

Nothing

The management doesn’t care about its employees only how much money you can make them. If multiple people are doing the same thing they pick who they fire

Pros

3rd shift

Cons

They pick and choose who they fire

Always Creating Opportunities for People To Better Themselves

SCA creates a lot of opportunities for its employees. They will help you get you CDL and further your education while working for them. They have over 68 locations so there is this creates a lot of opportunities for people to move up and they promote within.

Pros

Give you opportunities other companies would not

Cons

Equipment is a little outdated. Everyone needs to do their part for upkeep of machines.

No respect for coworker or management, disorganization, misleading, dirty, unethical

This place will demand all your time ( even off the clock), they run the machines to the ground and push blame on the mechanics. Management is only concerned with their greed to make money, not a care about the environmental effects of their decisions or the care of the workers that keep that place running. Have no skills in managing machines or balance of time, their process and thinking makes no sense as most time leaves the location with not enough trucks to run a night shift. The catch is the demand to fix the trucks in need of parts when the part companies will no longer sell to this company because the bills aren't paid.

Pros

Ask for higher hourly wage, they will pay, they are desperate for bodies

Cons

Management, Junk machines, low employee moral, dirty environment, favors drivers, horrible benefits, shady environmental practices, greedy owners, no work life balance

Pretty Great Place

Not a bad place to work, it's a growing company with lots of potential. it's a lot of hard work and compromise but a the end of the day the company gives you the opportunity to prove your self.

No respect

If you enjoy working in a fun environment, have a good head on your shoulders and value your sanity…don’t work here it’s a good start up job, but that’s About it. They don’t respect their drivers AT ALL!!! And the management is very careless!

Low pay

Unorganized company only people that benefit from the work is upper management. Drivers treated unfair and they don't care what you have going on outside of work

Driving a street sweeper all over and sweeping.

You are scheduled a few jobs per day, driving between them and sweeping. Some jobs are an hour. Some are more. Most times you don’t need the time allotted to finish the job. But you have to stay anyway. Management is terrible, the mechanics don’t care if the piece of garbage trucks you drive have problems. The dispatcher (who makes your schedule and is your point of contact for issues) only cares about himself and throwing everyone else under the bus.

Pros

Listen to own music, podcasts. Work independently.

Cons

No one gives a hoot about anything. If you have a family, they don’t care what at home responsibilities you have.

Work can be productive, long as equipment is in good working order. Other then poor maintenance on vehicle this place requires patients.

What is the best part of working at the company?The job is extremely easy. No hard effort at all. One of the easiest jobs of my life.What is the most stressful part about working at the company?When the weather if bad there is no pay. If you can not work, you will not get paid. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Mostly all men work here. Very few women. There is only men in upper management/ supervisors. What is a typical day like for you at the company?My days are simple & easy as long as your are in a decent work truck.
