Pros

Getting certifications is easier, but even other companies started to do the same thing.

Cons

The pay is extremely low. If you want to climb the ladder forget about it, especially if you are an immigrant. The team leader will cut your hours without informing you. They do not care about technicians, they will keep train new batches because it's tax deductible and they are happy with it (I am talking about the Chantilly office).

Pros

Good place to start, as experience is not required. Fellow techs are nice people.

Cons

Countless cons, here I list a few of them: 1- The pay is literally close to one half of what other companies pay. 2- Getting raise is non-existent. 3- Your work is never appreciated (even if you work 50+ hours every single week). 4-Management does not know how to communicate, wont answer your calls. 5-Project managers don't know how to "manage". 6-Senior staff will do whatever they can to save as money as possible, so that they can get their fat bonuses. 7-Your schedule can change in a moment's notice, so dont plan anything. 8-Be prepared to be thrown under the bus, if something goes wrong.

Pros

Independent work. Little to no immediate supervision after the first one-two weeks of shadowing existing technicians. Employer provides nice boots and puts new technicians through training courses for various job specific certifications. It is nice to get training and learn about the tools and concepts you will be using before actually doing it on your own.

Cons

Schedules given the day before/day of work each day. Daily schedule constantly changing as a result of changes in the clients schedule do to weather and other variables. Physically demanding work. Some technicians may need to use their personal vehicle to get from one site to another and transport equipment. The sites are often very treacherous and put alot of wear and tear on the vehicle. You are paid for mileage which makes a significant difference in your pay check, however, you will more than likely end up putting that extra money into your vehicle to keep it running.
