      Pros

      Pay is decent, but slightly below average

      Cons

      Under qualified coworkers If you are a good mechanic your going to worked to death while other skaters by. Advancement beyond shop lead requires a significant pay cut to move up to maintenance manager. No training opportunities Unrealistic expectations, no work life balance Expected to stay until “everything is fixed” Pulling teeth to down a truck

      Pros

      Not many pros. Can’t think of any. People were nice at first but then they all got fired around me. Replaced countlessly.

      Cons

      If you are not part of “The Foot Hills” then you are already on your way out the door. This is a mafia within the company that lie to the cooperate level employees about wrecks, etc. if you aren’t part of the club and you tell cooperate the truth you get the boot.
