Pros

Good pay package. The company rewards hard work, and if you're willing to put the extra effort and hours, you will make a lot more money. Field engineers tend to make a % of the work done on top of their base salaries, so you can get rich fairly quickly. Training is pretty good too.

Cons

Work-life balance is not the greatest. Hours can be unusual. Locations are horrible, unless you enjoy living in the middle of no where.
