Pros

Entry level hazmat job Benefits pretty quickly

Cons

Poor management in the Columbia, MO branch Pay scale changes Have to work to death to get a head enough to take time off because you don't have anyone to cover for you while you're gone. The company constantly lies to you. Your job is constantly being threatened. You have to work overtime to make enough money, but many times overtime is cut so pay sucks. Commission is horrible.
