Pros

Good place to start off Learn the very basics

Cons

This company will hire to fire and does not pay well. If you are desperate for GIS work then its an okay place to work but I would start looking for something bette ASAP. They do not care for you so you should not care for them, I was told one day I was doing a great job and I would be receiving a raise next month and then was laid off with 40 others with no warning the next week. The work is also very unfulfilling and work culture is not good at all. The CEO also loved to pander to the lower workers and is very unprofessional and incompetent. I would avoid at all costs.

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.
