Pros

I loved being outside all the time, camping with my crew and working hard every day. The places I went on hitch around Arizona were gorgeous, each different from the last.

Cons

The schedule was a little offputting, having 8 days on hitch working and then 6 days off just to hang out in Flagstaff, and I had trouble getting used to it. It pays very little. Crewleaders are a mixed bag, but were mostly good. Living in a house with 20 other people was exhausting and sometimes gross. Difficult if you're an introvert.

Pros

This review is as full time central staff. If considering a seasonal position with a gov't agency through ACE, they are great! Flexible schedule Cool work Incredible team

Cons

Management is completely disconnected from work force. They're concerned with accolades and looking like they care, but will not actually listen or communicate with employees HR director is actively hostile and does not care about people 100% business focused despite being a non profit Values and mission are nothing more than words on a website
