Pros

-Gives you a paycheck and sometimes a bonus. -Can work with some interesting technology -Management does provide some schedule flexibility and time off for family emergencies

Cons

-If there is a vision, management has never articulated it -Will not pay for equipment replacement, even if broken -People always seem to be the first cut unlike unnecessary expenses such as management's travel -Company's bureaucracy makes the Federal government look efficient -Company will lie about insurance and leave the employee hanging -No advancement unless you are in management's graces -No performance reviews -Employees tend to have anger issues. Will yell at other employees over minor events -Senior management treated significantly different than regular employees -Morale is overall low, and management will not address it -Practically no job security -Very little training -Managers do not discuss career plans with the company.

Pros

The good side of working here is the safety program that they have in place. It is one of the best.

Cons

Bad communication from upper management all the way down to the lowest man on the list. To many loud mouth know it all new workers that only have 1 to 2 months experience in the position they are in. Very bad lack of leadership, especially in the rental equipment shop. Management states " no job is worth putting yourself at risk" and say not to rush or speed, but yet we have dispatch and several supervisors rushing up at every turn like NASCAR drivers. To many boss's are buddy, buddy with lower level employees which lands new hires in open positions instead of senior employees.
