    What’s it like working at JJ's Waste & Recycling?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees consistently highlight the positive culture and supportive team environment at JJ's Waste & Recycling, where colleagues genuinely care about each other's success. Management and leadership are approachable and willing to listen, whilst the company provides excellent training and development opportunities with significant investment in employee growth. Many appreciate the work/life balance and flexibility, along with competitive pay rates and the variety in daily tasks that keeps work engaging. As a family-run, Australian-owned business, JJ's is noted for its genuine family values and long-term career opportunities.

    However, there are some areas for consideration, such as the fleet being older in some cases, though the company is actively replacing trucks with newer models. Some systems could benefit from modernisation, and the early morning start times around 5:30 am can take adjustment for new employees. Additionally, adapting to the fast-paced environment and managing the volume of email communication can present initial challenges for some team members.

    Genuinely care about their staff, old fashioned values where it's people over profit.
    The good thingsYou don't get many businesses like this anymore and I was sad to have to leave due to family commitments. I felt people actually cared and I could go in and feel good about the company I was working for.
    The challengesSome of their systems could do with a bit of modernising

    Stay well away from Reg Waste - Health & Hygiene.
    The good thingsDirect customer contact, above award hourly rates.
    The challengesBetter flexibility, more honesty regarding work and training opportunities. Far more honesty in what the job involves and a complete overhaul regarding safety. The Health and Hygiene department is a seriously dangerous area and 37.13 isn't anywhere near enough for the risks involved in the job.
