Pros

free gear, lots of training and opportunity to advance yourself. Depending on the location of your office, plenty of overtime and weekend work if you need it. Decent benefits and mostly new equipment and tools to work with. One of the safest companies in the industry, you will learn to be safe and want to show others that they are doing it wrong

Cons

This can vary depending on your office, I work at one of the larger offices and the HR department in terrible. Hard to get anything done and if you need something good luck getting it on the first visit to the office. I have worked for several small offices during storm emergencies that wanted to help and were more friendly. Promotions are not based off of performance but checklists and paper work. Management never seems to remember that you helped them out on a difficult job or worked a 15 hour day for them when it comes to reviewing your wage. Management does not value you as an asset but rather a strong back that will complete jobs in the amount of time they need you to. Jobs can be underbid and never seem to come out and this reflects badly on you.

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,
