Pros

Really kind and helpful staff. Great environment and plenty of opportunity. Learn a lot of new skills on the job. Techs can be rehired when new work comes in.

Cons

Technicians are hired through another company and get no PTO, no paid holidays, and not very good benefits.

The office staff cares about employees, the staff is very caring about eachother, lots of after-work activities, good and honest work, managers are attentive to needs, and there are plenty of opportunities to move up the ladder.

Sometimes I'd rather be at work than at home.

Pros

Work from home freedom Boss is very communicative

Cons

They rely on ghost writing too much instead of having the inspectors write their own reports. They hire very very poor subcontractors to do inspections that give very bad info and take poor photos. No breaks from one report to the other. The report review also needs help... lots of errors in prior reports. Constantly overloaded fixing everyone's mistakes. Lazy coworkers. Lots of late late nights working.
