Pros

The training is thorough, anyone can go in with no experience and come out a near expert at locating. Can go farther if you become a lead tech, even farther as a manager. Upward mobility is good, not easy. The work isn't back breaking, just outside a lot. Management is fair.

Cons

The workload is stressful, routes are futile if you get an emergency ping. They want you to finish 16 tickets a day, it ends up being a race against the clock. When I left, they gave smartphone in place of the large PC screen I used for maps. It was a 10x quality of usability downgrade, both in ergonomics and visibility of the maps. Wages are bare minimum for livability. When you apply for this position, negotiate for higher! Don't let them TELL you to start at $18/hr.

Cons

Any good review you read on this website is fake. This company is the most shadiest company i have ever worked for. They sit around in there offices talking behind your back. Lack of pay and benefits,remind you how many times you loose in pay because you messed up in your job. Under lots of stress all of the time. sneaking into homeowners backyards,worrying about dogs all of the time or homeowners pulling out a gun or calling the police on you. Walking in the middle of busy streets and highways day and night. Getting yelled at homeowners,contractors,business owners,farmers,bosses,employees,PSE,ect. This job is a very stressful job and does not pay enough for what we do. Do not work for this company they will all go up in flames because they are a hot mess.
