Pros

I don't have anything positive to say about them.

Cons

Hired to answer the phones 6 years ago, and have since ran the entire business basically yet continue to get paid the price of a secretary basically. They take advantage of you, expect you to run the business completely while they go to conferences, and vacation yet still only pay you for your normal 40 hours. When confronting about pay they tell you to go flip burgers basically if you don't like it, because to them paying you more is more out of their pockets. The owner is an idiot, doesn't know anything about construction so he underbids everything, and the customers even laugh at him. He does not understand how run a company either.

Pros

Amazing work life balance. Working by yourself, perfect for the divergent people. Company van with gas paid for starting day 1 that you get to take home daily. Penny (owner) is amazing and the best boss.

Cons

Small company so health insurance is very pricy (125.00 per paycheck).

Pros

Boss fights to have solid employees, no poisonous attitudes, great pay and benefits, office staff is supportive and very good at what they do.

Cons

The only major one is that this is a “road life” job. It’s not for everyone, but it’s what I’ve done for nearly two decades so I am used to it.
