Pros

Company vehicle and gas card.

Cons

Everything else. Inept management. Poor compensation. Safety violations. Zero communication. Zero leadership. Lied to about salary. Deceptive hiring practices. You aren't paid for your first week of work. If you leave, you will not receive your forthcoming pay. "Managers" are a joke. "Safety" is emphasized, and you will spend endless hours watching safety videos, but when a dangerous safety issue occurs, don't expect any leadership. If the ratings included a "0" I would have selected that. On a daily basis, Managers are violating the published safety regulations. The need to be a 'buddy' to your team far outweighs any proper leadership abilities. Lack of leadership is pervasive. Higher ups allow the complete ineffectiveness of the local manager to continue, despite many employees voicing concerns about the total lack of professionalism and leadership. They will continue to try and hire inexperienced 'yes' men, rather than professional sales people with integrity. This is the case all the way to HR at corporate. Run, don't walk away from this company.

Pros

You get paid every week

Cons

If you're not related to someone here, no one listens to you or takes you seriously. Management will not listen to its employees when they tell them of the problems they will have when making decisions on repairs/installs. Management just makes blind decisions without listening to input, and as a result the employees are forced to suffer and make poor repairs because there is no other way BECAUSE of management. Management only takes safety seriously when it's convenient to them. If you point out a obvious safety issue, they'll just shrug it off. But if you get caught doing ANYTHING remotely minuscule of a possible safety issue, you get a talking to and may end up losing your job. People here would rather beat their head against the wall than do things the easy or right way. Extremely poor planning on management's behalf with EVERYTHING. Don't work here if you ever plan on doing something with your life. Certain individuals are allowed to just stand around all day while you're made to work like a horse. And when you bring it up you get a " that's the way it is" explanation.
