A great place to work but no opportunities for advanced or increase in compensation.

Pros

Enjoyable work and atmosphere. Everyone is super nice, especially the owners.

Cons

I know it sounds strange but your degree or whatever education you posses is meaningless. Unfortunately work ethic and dedication to the company have no bearing on your advancement or your compensation. In fact it's literally company policy to not reward you for hard work.

Pros

Coworkers, for the most part are nice. They have great benefits that start on your 1st day.

Cons

No tech support, always referred to manufactures tech supt. Local office doesn't have a clue on time it takes for installs/service calls. There's a girl that runs the technicians and has a lot of personal problems that gets brought into the work environment. She's emotional and has a lot of inabilities. Really, just an overpaid babysitter/paper pusher.
