Pros

Paid mileage, good benefits, on paper good potential career growth. Great if you enjoy the outdoors.

Cons

Most of my cons might be just my specific management, as other managers/supervisors I have witnessed seemed very different. Corporate training is very well executed. Local business unit training is extremely short & lacking, if I didn't have previous experience I wouldn't have a clue what was going on or what they expect. Seems like most of the training is "go ahead and try it, I'll let you know when and where you go wrong", feels like walking around a maze with a blindfold on. Very misleading on the amount of field vs office work, don't expect to design your own fielding, most of the time it gets handed off to someone else that doesn't field at all. Hood-winked. Very much thrown in the deep end and management acting surprised when there are problems / short-comings. The job position sells you on flexible work hours, but management expects 10+ hr days. Not very flexible, nor was it communicated well during the interview stage. I feel hood-winked, again. No 1.5x Overtime, any OT is 1x pay and only if you met your billable metrics for the week. Between 40-45 hours it seems like they have discretion to pay you OT or not. No thanks. Since my time here, I have noticed too many experienced team members disappear that you wouldn't have expected to leave -- no announcement or mention of them leaving from leadership. I understand sometimes the "why" can't be given out for HR reasons, but it's very strange not to notify the team. High seasonal work pacing -- lots of summer work, low winter work, high potential for layoffs.
