Pros

Plenty of challenges & work, reasonable pay, benefits, and perks.

Cons

High-pressure, competitive, highly politically charged environment. Many unprofessional employees are promoted with obvious favoritism, while good talent is let go. Tons of long hours and pressure without giving any extra. Many are pushed beyond reasonable limits and burn out. Very inefficient procedures & processes. Upper management seems to have very limited knowledge of their industry and makes reactionary decisions based solely on cost.

Pros

- Decent pay and good benefits - work truck with gas card -good experience

Cons

- management is disconnected from field employees - review process does not reflect employee performance since managers do not go out in field in order to properly assess job performance - poor communication which leads to chaotic project implementation - no standardization of necessary info for each customer site. You walk in completely blind each time you visit a customer you’ve never been to - safety is important, but corporate pushes redundant messaging so frequently i believe it has the opposite of the intended effect - forced to wear long sleeves FR shirts in hot weather even when you are not exposed to fire hazards any more than a standard office employee
