Pros

Good pay and Benefits and retirement

Cons

Company expects to much of their frontline employees. The Frontline workers are constantly scared to make the smallest mistake because they will have to go through a company investigation that takes weeks or months to complete. More than likely they will be fired over something as small as a scratch on a truck.

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.
