I'm currently still employed with Republic. Right off the bat the base compensation is less than ideal. People in my position generally land at 50k base. I'm closer to 100k. The commission structure is ok. Guardrails for pricing are not generally in line with the market. In my opinion the company doesn't view the sales role in the traditional sense. They're more concerned with activities than results (logging calls and meetings). They've started to knee cap my role in that relationships with customers are not prioritized. I'm 100% new sales, but when I land a large customer, (property management groups, etc), instead of letting me leverage the relationship it gets passed to an account manager that now owns all of the new business. That way they don't have to pay the reps commission anymore. It also shrinks the reps territory.

My overall experience in the 7 years I was with the company was not bad in the first 3 years. Years 4 and 5 were great for internal promotions. Year 6 was the best year I made base plus commission I blew it out of the park. Year 7 I was demoted making an hourly wage and NO COMMISSION. I LITERALLY HAD TO GET A 2nd JOB like WTH.

I had a great sales manager and regional manager. I would have stayed if not for wanting to make a transition to another industry. I do recommend a sales role at Republic Services if you are wanting to get a start in sales. It's great B2B experience with growth opportunities.
