Pros

Positive attitude gives you room to grow. Opportunities are available if employees are willing to step up to the plate, give a little extra. Can be a fun and challenging company to work for.

Cons

Seasonal, can get a bit slow, but then that is the time to play catch-up. Negative attitudes can pull you down if you let it. Medical benefits ... not so good.

Pros

The workload is pretty steady as this organization is in a very "needed" sector. If you like to stay busy, you can easily, and they do pay you for your time. Full time employees receive a very fair UNH benefit package, and overtime is a must if you want to bank the money. With the cultures turn over the way it is, they will pay you to do more for a while before they replace any position. But you will get tired.

Cons

This organization fosters a very aggressive Sales culture as opposed to a service culture which would coincide with their marketing. There is a lot of finger pointing, ego`s, and insecurities at every level of the company. No one cares about the workload you are required to do, until your finished with the task that they assigned priority to, then wonder in amazement that you are not 2 people and could not finish both at the same time. Then your on the "list", and you better sell something even if your not in"sales", if you want to keep your job, or at list get off the list for a day. Hiring and firing do to lack of training is the name of the game.

Pros

Friendly people and a pretty laid-back environment. If you focus on your job and are accountable you won't have any issues. Benefits are decent and they offer yearly raises.

Cons

A fair amount of petty office drama and micro-managing. Also not too much room for advancement both inside the branch or into the divisional or national offices. Lack of understanding between the corporate office and branch needs.

Pros

Job is essentially very easy and straightforward. Always have something to do and everyone has different personalities that can make work fun and enjoyable.Technicians are knowledgeable and are good at what they do. There is a week of appreciation for all employees in the later part of the year.

Cons

Communication between management and departments is seriously lacking. Most everyone is doing their job, but because of the different personalities, there are a lot of disagreements and customers will suffer and be inconvenienced because of that. There are constant changes and meetings for those in the office are rare leaving most of us in the dark.Medical benefits are expensive.
