Pros

Good benefits. Good work in an underated industry. Financially strong company. Friendly co-workers. Safe work enviornment at the branch level. Good service reputation in my community.

Cons

Poor leadership from all levels of management. The turnover at my office has been so rampant that it feels like management is creating problems so they can act to solve problems, unfortunately it seems like every month someone else is being shown the door. The daily unrest at my office is constant. Not sure what the direction the new CEO wants to take the company. The previous CEO talked the talk but never walked the walk. It always feels like today is the last day the company will be in business. The company was a lot better run when it was Superior.

Pros

Great benefits package. Very passionate employees running the various projects. When work is initiated and defined, it is what they say it will be. There are some really good managers who are an inspiration to work for. If training is offered, it is generally first class and well done.

Cons

The work can get monotonous quickly. They do not utilize technology as a business tool, rather as a burden to work. There are some extremely heavy handed managers who treat employees and vendors as threats. There is also an extreme interpretation of the SOX Law that hampers productivity.

Pros

speaking for our location I can say that they are a good group of people who are a pleasure to work for and with. If there is extra work to be done they ask if you can do it and if you cant they never make you feel guilty or that you are not pulling your share. If you do anything extra you are always thanked usually by more than one person, its very refreshing to me to feel appreciated. They also are very forward thinking as a company about environmental issues which is neet to be a part of. As a dirver for this company I am also very happy with the attention to safety and maintenance of the vehicles we use everyday.

Cons

Sometimes the hours can get very long and early starts are rough.
