Pros

Mix of field and office work Year round work available Mostly compliance monitoring and pre-clearing, not just environmental monitoring OT at 1.5 pay or banked hours (paid out quarterly) Competitive salaries Ability to nominate coworkers for monetary bonuses ($250-$2000) Opportunities for upward movement and cross disciplinary work

Cons

Very busy field season, trips cancelled last minute Very little mentorship/guidance Often thrown set up to fail and blamed for mistakes Big company difficulties (getting approved for expenses, training, PPE, etc.) Branded as an enviro company but mostly just a lot of talk OT paid out quarterly so no big chunks of time off in the winter High burnout rate

Pros

Cool projects. Diversity of work

Cons

Basically every 15 minutes need to be billed to a client. If not you will be penalized even if they say you’re doing great.
