Pros

Monday-Friday mostly and no real set time to work if you're in the commercial section tons of ot if you want it sometimes you have to say no or you will become brunt out

Cons

It's all a hustle you get told you by managers that you have to work overtime then when you tell them you have something to do it's an issue.. also when your are the new tech you get all the bad accounts that are not being handled correctly and when they blow up it's on you they talk about reports and put stuff in your notes but only read them when the issue gets out of control and depending on how serious it is you can be written up or worst plus most of the trucks suck then if not licensed you gotta become a slave for Orkin they overload your schedule then ask you why you don't have you license
