Pros

If you’re in sales you’ll make good money, if you’re into their philosophy you may enjoy it. It is a rapidly growing company

Cons

I enjoyed my job until Groundworks took over. They take away your responsibilities and eliminate you so everything is at the corporate level and everyone else sells and installs. The culture went downhill and became aggressive, numbers focused and very unoriginal and competitive. Top level operates fueled on a vendetta against competitors, make themselves look like a growing company with a lot to offer. From my experience those in the trenches get overworked and under-appreciated or done away with all together. Whatever it takes to be the biggest and “best” in the industry.
