Pros

Good pay since everyones pay went up 3-4 dollara an hour. Work close to home for theost part. No more then a hour or so from home. Certian supervosors are great to work for

Cons

Forced over time ( if you dont work overtime you dont work the next week) They dont like to replace equipment or vehicles at all Often end up working with broken tools Often sent out with vehicles that will break down Tool and truck replacement come off the top of general foreman's bonus so they try not to replace No recognition for service or outstanding work Raises are almost unheard of unless you get promoted and it still takes forever.

Pros

Nothing at all. It's all listed in the cons.

Cons

We were sold off to them from Optimum. Quickly trying to become the worst company in America to work for. They took away our vacation. Our sick time. Our personal time. They took away holidays. Now they are saying that working a holiday is mandatory unless you asked it off 2 weeks before it (they gave notice of that less than a week before it). They monitor wherever you are, doing whatever, soon as that truck moves. You aren't allowed to backup. If you call in two times in a 90 day period, you're in trouble. If it gets to 8 times (the last call in continues it on) you're fired. They overwork you because they are "behind" and you're just expected to work later. We're expected to do more and for less. They even denied our merit raises saying they didn't believe in them. They don't care about your family and wanting to see them. To be able to spend time outside of work. DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY IF YOU CAN HELP IT!
