Pros

Overall great people to work with in the field locations. Good pay. Good benefits.

Cons

Way too much decision making from the corporate office over the past 5+ years. Corporate personnel don't know the business, but make all of the decisions for the business. This has driven away most employees with years of knowledge and expertise. Way too top heavy, even after all the cuts.

Pros

Overworked and under-respected from the top down, but liked the people at the local level who act like a team and are pretty great.

Cons

Don't expect any loyalty or appreciation, no matter how hard you work. Hours are long, long long and the recognition is almost nil.
