Pros

Good People and strong team environment. When I came on board I was lead to believe that there was a lot of opportunity for growth and development. Everyone I work with works extremely hard often putting in long hours and going above and beyond. The environment can be toxic at times because of low moral. The day to day offers a variety of tasks and is generally never the same which makes the day go fast. I would say the biggest asset this company has is the dedication of many of the employees.

Cons

Very inflexible company when it comes to understanding young families. They offer promises of flexibility and huge growth opportunities but it is hard for them to follow through. The company is going through a huge growth spurt and making tons of money exceeding our budget month after month but when it comes to raise time stingy in sharing that with lower level employees. Higher level employees take company paid trips and post pictures on face book of their parties and fraternizing. This does little for the general population moral. Management does not seem to care or even be aware of low moral with in the departments.Greed seems to be their theme right now. The Human Resource department is the largest joke of the company and is sorely lacking. More worried about hosting fund raisers and benefits than working with their people to resolve department issues.

Pros

It's nice to be on your own in the field with some strong resources in you tool belt. The machines are fairly easy to troubleshoot once you understand how they work.

Cons

The schedule is long hours, always away from home, and dealing with poor logistics in terms of the travel. I'll 5 hours from home and then be asked to go another 5 hours out of the way before I maybe make it home late on Friday night. Other than that, there's little room for growth into management or beyond. And the management is a good ol boys club where they pick and choose which jobs go to who based on rank, not merit. Usually the techs with bad work ethic are over glorified because they make the company more service money. The reimbursement program is decent but it takes a lot of money to be on the road. And the auto program sucks...I lose more money in maintenance costs than anything else.
