Pros

None come to mind unfortunately

Cons

Wages are based on how many projects you can complete in a day.sourcing material time(significant!),travel to and between customer locations and 2 1/2 hr Monday morning team meetings are all unpaid.Also unpaid is any recalls on your work, in fact they will deduct the recall cost from your wages if another technician is sent. In my case they had insufficient business to keep me busy so I couldn't make a decent wage.when I said I was leaving in 2 days the owner promptly took the van keys ,ushered me out the door like a criminal and called an uber to bring me home. I had to return later in my own car to pick up my tools under the supervision of the office manager . 1 week later 469 dollars was deposited into my account (for 2 weeks work). Make up your own mind if you want to work for this Cowboy!

Pros

Amazing work life balance. Working by yourself, perfect for the divergent people. Company van with gas paid for starting day 1 that you get to take home daily. Penny (owner) is amazing and the best boss.

Cons

Small company so health insurance is very pricy (125.00 per paycheck).

Pros

Boss fights to have solid employees, no poisonous attitudes, great pay and benefits, office staff is supportive and very good at what they do.

Cons

The only major one is that this is a “road life” job. It’s not for everyone, but it’s what I’ve done for nearly two decades so I am used to it.
