Pros

Very established in the industry. Company is growing more intelligently than in the past. Most states have competitive compensation.

Cons

Becoming more "corporate" every day. Cameras added to vehicles. Trying to unify every state's processes instead of individualizing it for the market. Treated like a commodity instead of a person.

Pros

Take-Home work vehicle, cell phone, work laptop, gas card, flexible hours, decent pay.

Cons

It's hard to retain quality locators just due to the location and excessive heat during the summers(Phoenix ,AZ) and scope of some of the locates called in. It can definitely take a toll on your mental well-being, but help is always there if you need it especially when some contractors call in a locate ticket for 10,000 plus feet to be located or entire neighborhoods is they are installing new fiber... Those requests are usually not that common depending on which area you're working but places that are expanding and all that it's more prevalent.
