Business Outlook

Pros

Don’t deal with the public too often. Great teamwork. Variety of different systems to work with, hydraulics, circuitry, mechanical, and HVAC.

Cons

Shifts and schedules are dictated by seniority, and do not have a merit system. No matter how hard you work, you still get paid the same as the guy next to you sitting down.
