Pros

Outside of T&I it's a great company.

Cons

The corruption in T&I is awful. The outsourcing is unbelievable. The new reviews saying how amazing it is were expected (see below review predicting this behavior). They do this every time, people put honest reviews up, they turn around and put glowing reviews up. Most of the people who put these up either haven't been there for more than a month or are delusional.

Pros

Great benefits. Affordable health insurance

Cons

Stagnant growth. They only focus on leadership development or licensed trades. Growth is based on friendships. Skills and experience don’t mean much.
