Pros

Awesome opportunities within the company that offer a wide variety of work and placement throughout the company. This company can surely be the spot for a career, or simply a place to build a strong foundation of experience to move forward with. As a technician, the group of colleagues you'll have surrounding you locally and out of town are great. Field pay is great if you love the road.

Cons

Long hours, not competitive with their pay/benefits, a lot of traveling.

Pros

Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

Cons

(1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
