Pros

- There's definitely no shortage of work to do - Work is usually interesting - Plenty of opportunities to showcase your skill and make a name for yourself

Cons

- High workload sometimes means there isn't much room for support from colleagues - Being dispensable in the evenings and over the weekends is the expectation - Work never stops coming which can be tough if you're not the type that can be on all the time

Pros

Excellent pay/benefits, Safety first mindset, flexible scheduling, fantastic training program, phenomenal team support, convenient locations. Plenty of pathways for career advancement and full support for self promotion. Culture is fantastic. You really can be yourself and make many new friends fast. Teamwork is outstanding. Everyone is always willing to help.

Cons

Growing so fast that it's hard to keep the same manager. I've had four managers in two months. Constantly have to adapt to new procedures and changes and working locations. Always in a state of flux. Standards keep changing all the time
