Pros

As long as you're not on the large service teams, the work-life balance is phenomenal

Cons

You're given a lot of ownership, which also means a lot of responsibility. If you aren't careful, you can end up responsible for a lot of work but if you're careful about how you commit your time, you can maintain a very healthy WLB while still contributing meaningful work to your team

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
