Ecolab reviews

High Pressure to made additional sales daily/weekly/monthly/yearly! Like many jobs, it becomes very repetitive and OLD! Causes some reps to sell items, which include chemicals and related products that aren't needed. Ecolab management runs on the EPS mindset. While they want to take care of the customer, it's all with the Stock Market in mind. This company works employees to the bone. Very poor work/life balance. This means that you're on call 24/7/365 unless you have another associate cover for you. This can be difficult. You're on call until at least 11PM daily unless it's a large customer .. Corporate will call you at any time of the night! That SUCKS!! Actually there are to many cons to list!!!

-While the company tries to solve internal problems by making associates believe their views matter, Ecolab avoids the fact that the salaries they offer do not even remotely align with the industry average. -Territories in districts are rarely ever completely filled, resulting in management squeezing every work hour out of you to finish up the open territory at any cost. -While told that the district is a team and that help is only a call or email away, when in dire straits, the only thing that is given is threats and offers to give overtime to get the job done. This includes working on weekends and holidays. -While getting a great deal of overtime is a positive in my opinion; after taking advantage of the offers for overtime (after having to cover another open territory) you will get hounded by your manager with emails threatening you to stay under your 40 hour work week (impossible if you have to cover an open territory). After working for 5 hours past the 40 hour work week, your manager will barrage you with emails threatening no bonus for the entire team if the overtime isn't brought under control. While understandable, it is confusing and stressful when overtime is touted as the answer to the understaffing problem.
