Pros

There are very good employees there. When hired you get on the job paid training for a week.

Cons

Its a very competitive work environment and lots of overtime. Seniority doesn't matter. I went back through a temp agency and was told I would get hired back in after 320 hours now they are saying it could be a year if at all. 3rd shift gets blamed for a lot of things because most of the people are from temp services. I was really hoping to get hired back in but not sure if it's gonna happen.

Pros

A place for new technicians to learn and gain great experience to use to further their careers.

Cons

Very disjointed company. Upper management offers little to no guidance and only expects results without investment.
