Pros

It's a job. It's a job.

Cons

You are not guaranteed 40 hours per week. The pay is too low (as a driver) to support yourself, even if you do get 40 hours. Managers sometimes forget to send out schedules, not great at communications. The cars have been modified and some of those modifications make problems which are not corrected by the engineers.

Kett Engineering are simply bootlickers for their clients

Pros

"full-time" employee at the company, so you don't have to look for a new job after work with a client ends. Cool I guess........ This company is nothing but a stepping stone/resume padder.

Cons

Kett doesn't care about their employees. They work with big name clients and like to keep a string hanging in front of you like you're a donkey to lure you into thinking you'll become an FTE at the client company but from what I've seen from previous employees, it takes more than 4 years to do that, all while paying you a meager wage that can't keep up with inflation. Good luck finding any opportunities for advancement. You can do all the work you want for the client, produce enough output, submit your work perfectly while meeting deadlines, but if you don't do it their way or their client is somehow not satisfied, then you're a failed employee in their eyes. Kett and the clients they work with want to milk every drop out of you while you slave away for them. If you need a job simply to pay for rent/bills/groceries, then it's a (laughably) decent option. Keep your expectations to an absolute minimum, don't appear to management as an overachieving "go-getter", learn how to game the system, and you'll be good.

Pros

Pays above minimum wage The managers are fair as well as nice VERY flexible schedule The work is not complicated

Cons

The company is cheap and doesn't care too much about they're employees Because the company is cheap there are no benefits The company does not have a very professional environment There are barely any positions that you can advance to Although the pay is above minimum wage, it is not very high It's project schedule so once in a while there is no work The job can be pretty boring
