Pros

Ok start pay. Very busy so time goes by. Overtime available. 401k and stock options.

Cons

Minimal raise. No opportunity to move up. Instead of promoting qualified employees with significant years of leadership experience, they promote outside of the department for supervisor and upper-level positions. Forced to train them and they struggle for years because they have not worked the bench in the department and never will. Treated as just a " warm body" robot to do the work. Hire unqualified and incompetent people that struggle and force other techs to train them. Education and license are not required or respected. Leadership doesn't listen and doesn't care. Very dismissive and self-serving.

Pros

Pay is higher than most in the area. Hours are good. Benefits are good.

Cons

It’s very difficult to get time off for anything, regardless of how much vacation time you have. Only 15% of those hours will carry over and you lose what you’ve worked for and weren’t able to use. Not enough floats to cover the territory so people can actually get time off. Pay raises aren’t very good.
