Pros

The people (below senior management) are good, hard-working personnel. They build strong relationships with the customers and sale staff and truly want to deliver a product to the customer that is the best.

Cons

Senior management - make decisions that impact the business negatively (closing locations). The CEO (John Panichella) is not approachable and does not seem to want to connect with any of the employees in the organization (its all a facade).

Pros

Paycheck, decent (Though expensive) insurance and good PTO (If you can take it). Coworkers and technicians are exceptional.

Cons

Absolute absence of work/life balance, PE company focused on keeping SG&A costs to a bare minimum and unwilling to increase headcount to handle increased business, no training program, no coherent plan for cruise business investment, no regard given to feedback to director level, say that comp time is given but it is impossible to claim with volatile environment. Did I mention the expectation of 24/7 availability for contact and work availability? Run, do not walk, away from these people.
