Pros

Get to work outdoors See many parts of California Exposed to/gain exp. in many parts of the industry very quickly

Cons

Extreme Outdoor work conditions (Summer months to include many 50-60+hr weeks in 100-110+ degree heat) Extremely long hours when including travel Last minute schedule changes The parts of California you see are the worst parts Very little support from management/PM's unless there is a problem Very little in-person training Homophobic, transphobic, and sexist comments/"jokes" are encountered regularly on the job from either other employees or subcontractors with whom you are expected to maintain good relations
