Pros

starting pay, salary PTO benefits.

Cons

The corporate Ohio office is in charge of everything yet they are out of touch with the other districts. Phoenix has no in office HR person so good luck getting any HR related issue resolved in a timely manner if at all. They say dont hesitate to bring up issues that are a safety concern or poor work ethic but no one does because there are consequences for doing so. Huge problem in Ohio and it affects all the other offices because most of the higher ups for other offices are running things from Ohio. Higher ups only start acting like supervisors or managers when they are threatened and after the acquisitions from Apollo they are finally doing their jobs but they haven't been for so long that they are detached and making poor decisions.

Pros

Unlimited vacation is a perk.

Cons

The company has serious cultural and leadership issues, particularly around accountability for inappropriate conduct. There have been significant concerns regarding a senior global employee’s behavior, including inappropriate sexual relationships with employees across multiple countries and concerns about misuse of position, influence, and company resources to support his behavior. The fact that these concerns were reportedly allowed to continue raises serious questions about the company’s commitment to "safety". Reporting concerns to HR was not viewed as an effective solution. A workplace cannot maintain trust when employees believe power and position can shield predatory behavior. Employees should also be aware that compensation expectations may not align with reality. Bonuses that employees work toward throughout the year will not be paid out as expected, and communication around these decisions has been unclear and last minute. Overall, leadership has appeared disorganized, unqualified, inconsistent, and lacking direction.
