Pros

Decent wages for the area. Mostly good down to earth people. I like what I do

Cons

Wages can be stagnant. Some people go years without raises or the raise is small. The company is hurt financially and often won't pay their vendors in a timely manner. Mass layoffs are a conmon practice at Erickson.
