Pros

Pretty decent pay. Good benefits. Used to have a good pto program but that's over.

Cons

Our site in Salt Lake is almost entirely outdoor so you're exposed to rain, shine, snow and hail for 60 - 70% of all the work you're doing. Doesn't matter how many units you push, it's never really enough for them. For the holidays there's no bonus. Just a turkey and a handshake. Couldn't get a respirator to save my life, even though that's an OSHA requirement. In fact, they're anti respirator. Mind you, I don't have facial hair. They only care about the well being of their employees to save a buck on paying for injury claims. Don't get injured, they'll make it your fault. Don't trust management to do anything worth while, except b*tch, you can always count on b*tching.

Pros

Once upon a time, I enjoyed it.

Cons

New CEO took over. He’s pretty out of touch. My former colleagues call me and ask me return on a weekly basis still because it’s going poorly for them. They constantly make business decisions that counter organic growth. Probably because the motivator is not organic growth. Sales are treated like call center employees and there’s a ton of hate from the WS/ MM merger that wasn’t dealt with. It is definitely an ivory tower. You’re inside of it or you are not. If you’re liked, you can do whatever you want. As long as it looks like you’re committed to the group. This means that you can’t share a dissenting opinion though. Two of the worst three managers I have ever seen were there. They target individuals who don’t go be them the metrics they want in safety or performance. HR’s goal is to protect the company. Share nothing with them, ever.
