Pros
Knowledge & Experience gained is good - I acquired a lot of experience from being tasked with duties well above my position, for the same pay, of course. The company offers a benefits package using insurance provider that is not currently widely accepted (in my experience with my network of providers here locally). Most corporations offer profit sharing and 401k, along with HSA opt, and Paid Time Off to be used within each calendar year. The dental was decent, and vision helpful. There were other benefit options available to pay for, also.
Cons
In a fortune 500 company, the people that make up that company often become very small and insignificant. Work/Life Balance Management P&P Working countless hours away from family with little time off granted, due to "business needs" was not an uncommon experience, regardless of unused PTO available, nor the length of time in which it had to be used. In life, there is a lot of paperwork required for most all positions, including field personnel - to be expected with any working position in life, of course, but when repetitive paperwork is in opposition of being able to get the job done, it can become a hindrance to getting the job done safely and/or on time. HR and the differing departments related to personnel assistance were a nightmare to reach/work with. HR does not appear to know how to effectively help the employees of subsidiary companies efficiently. If wild goose chase challenges are what is preferred for getting the personnel hired for the work, getting inventory to do the job or help for the crews, or getting anywhere with HR or timesheets submitted timely for correct/corrected pay then this is the place where those challenges can be tried, in my opinion of course. The company has underwent many changes in recent years that seem to have sadly squashed employee morale. The crews in office and in field seem to be mere skeleton crews that appear overworked, highly stressed, underpaid, and many with mental & physical health deteriorating. I won't even begin a review of training - not enough space nor legalities for that one. Good luck implementing changes to help the team in any way, and be leary of anything not in writing. In summary, there just seemed to be way too much to be done in too little time with too few people and too few resources to do it all in/with, and for years, the help that was needed and requested was simply not supplied. All of this is stated in my personal opinion and experience only.
