      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There is a lot of overtime. A truck is provided to use at work and when on-call. A cell phone is provided.

      Cons

      Manager's lack the skills to maintain contracts such as communication skills, work ethic, and knowledge of Environmental Science. Manager's are given a small crew and must be able to multi-task in order to complete projects. Thus, manager's must participate in manual labor activities.
