Future Engineers beware

Pros

° Money is decent ° cool people you work with ° travel if you're into that (expect to get homesick though)

Cons

° For project engineer in training (PEIT) theyres 3 phases 1. Install phase 2. Field engineerimg phase 3. Project engineering phase You'll definitely be on install.phase for more than 6 months expect a year unless the division you're working for is in dire need of project engineers. The company always does what's best for them so if they're short on install technicians than you'll be helping install. If the company says they got a lot of work remember that all this WORK needs to go through install phase before any testing or engineering work can be done on it. If you don't have a passion for audio and video systems DO NOT work here and waste your talents just cause it's the first job that offers you it. Expect to kiss buttocks a lot if you wanna move up. Work environment can be toxic , and stressful for the pay. Not worth it. Once you make it pass install phase though, the work shifts around to a more chill work environment. But before that happens make sure you have your steel toe boots , tools , hard hat, safety glasses and gloves ready, that you will have to pay for. Again don't work here if you expect to get networking experience. It's very minimal and you won't get hands on engineering until a year later so save yourself time and look elsewhere or else you'll.be stuck in an unmotivated loop with no skillsets to take with you and land a better job.

Pros

Great people in lower level positions.

Cons

Company standards are loose, easy to change the interpretation to met the management's current narrative. Then days/weeks later the ability to use the an opposing narrative with the same employee. CTS is now a requirement to remain employed for all recently hired job center employees.
