Pros

Most/all equipment is provided. Varied outdoor work environment. Supportive learning environment (usually)

Cons

The arboriculture industry attracts some hot-headed individuals ("cowboys") who are too impatient to teach new hires and are too self-absorbed to consider the safety of coworkers. The pay could be better, but Bartlett provides many opportunities for raises and promotions, especially to those with college degrees. Sales reps will sometimes under-bid jobs to make quotas, putting crews in a position where they are expected to finish jobs faster than is safely feasible.

Pros

The field work itself is interesting for those with a background in forestry Working outside on beautiful properties with clients who love their yards and the work you do is refreshing. Some employees may clock 8 hours and be out and home by noon. Plant health care specialist get to work on tree crews in the winter.

Cons

The vibe here isn't great. Some people are pushed through certifications and its just not safe. They're all about profit, even if it means wasting money and resources for a quick buck. Not enough safety gear – I was told to use the same gloves for pesticides for a whole month! Equipment never works, and they expect us to fix everything. Not enough work or chances to grow. Nobody seems to care. Management's communication is all over the place and often unprofessional. There's no support either. New hires are just left to figure things out,
