Pros

1) Very ethical company. 2) Genuinaley feel that they care about YOU. (probably depends on your branch manager a lot) 3) Have a fairly well defined career path and development program.

Cons

1) Pay is below average compared to cometition. 2) Some of the mangers/supers are "old school" so lack education and you feel you are teaching them about basic items like budgeting, costs, etc.

Pros

-Provided a lot training to solidify your role within the company -Given a lot of opportunity to work on your own -Company truck -You are given a lot of responsibility over many areas of the business(engineer, safety, environmental obligations)

Cons

-Company vibe changed from "we care about you" to "what have you done for me lately" -A lot of lay offs, resulted in somewhat closing of the branch -Medical benefits are not that great.....in fact they are the worse I have ever experienced. I had a part time job, when I was attending college that had better benefits than this; and I was working part time
