      Pros

      Not bad salary structure.........if you want to play the game...

      Cons

      No freedom to speak your mind, as you are told the opposite. Be ready to report where you were today at 3:11pm......painful micromanagement, with managers not secure in their ways....An old boys club, with political backdrop. Throwing under the bus, and back-stabbing by your peers is the norm as they seek advancement, or simply want to 'look better'. The harder you lick, the quicker you advance.No respect for the crew in the field, rather.......monthly beat-downs provided in the shape and form of monthly 'coaching calls' by your manager....usually some guy/girl looking for advancement and see you as a potential threat .

      Pros

      Acceptable pay, interesting work, friendly peers

      Cons

      The annual incentive plan is poorly correlated to employee impact. Management generally appears to have a superiority complex than does lend itself to properly informed decisions.
