      Business outlook

      Pros

      -Lots of Ot available, typically 50-60hrs/ week -Opportunity for a lot of responsibility as an apprentice -Can expect to make $70-85k as a first year apprentice with per diem, bonus, and salary -Company provides every imaginable tool -Safety is top priority, will never be put in an unsafe situation -Time off is relatively easy to get for holiday -Amount of pro given is fair

      Cons

      -Per diem is low -Not a lot of talented electricians to learn from -The few talented individuals will be overwhelmed with alot of responsibilities -Not many journeyman on most jobs, almost always out of ratio -Will spend alot of time on rework especially on jobs with temps -Don’t expect breaks, they push labor pretty hard. Lunch is about the only break you get on a ten hour day -Journeyman pay is low -401k match is very low

      Pros

      Flexibility Awesome People Culture Development Job Security Work Life Balance

      Cons

      Don't have many at this time other than sitting at a desk all day can be tough. However we have a extremely nice office space so there are tons of opportunities to switch up the scenery and its nice to be able to go on walks around the building to take a break!

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Strong family culture and people genuinely care about each other and enjoy working together, even in a high stress environment Leadership is very accessible and down to earth; no “elite” feel, and leaders regularly engage with employees at all levels Opportunities for internal growth and career progression is real for those who perform and take ownership High level of trust and autonomy in roles, especially in leadership positions Flexible work environment when possible; leadership understands real life needs while still supporting field teams

      Cons

      Company wide standards and pace of change can feel overwhelming, especially when balancing regional needs and multiple sources of information
