Pros
If you want to spend most of your time at work, there are plenty of hours that you are required to be there. Installers/ water transfer workers are a high demand. If you are in Sales you really don't have to work hard for your pay, and get rewarded with cruises on the company yacht, and golf tournaments, while the hardest workers get things like quarterly safety bonuses taken away, you will get Salary plus commission and have take home pay higher than all the workers combine.
Cons
No time to invest in family, and when you have the time, you will not have enough money in your pay for essentials like food, or even fuel to get to work. If you choose to move to a position in the yard where they try to limit your hours, because you are doing work that is not billable to a specific customer, you will find that you do not get paid enough for how hard it is to get everything done in the time frame that management wants it done. If you are a hard worker and are self motivated, this company will use that to their advantage and keep you doing a job you hate for less money than if you were using your skills somewhere else. They reward you with more responsibility and give the nice raises to the lazy favorite drinking buddies.It is like slavery in this century, you will find yourself coming to work not wanting to be there and loosing everything that means the most to you. Management doesn't care that your shift causes you to only see family on weekends, and in order for you to be able to pay the bills and put food on the table, you have to work the weekend filling in for someone who is sick or on vacation. Safety is not job number one here even though it is preach like it is. The only real numbers they care about is the profit and quantity of products out on rent, not the quality of service or products rented, or even keeping the best employees who actually want to work and care for the customer's needs. For example: sending out spillguard containment to a customer with holes big enough to put you hand through, is just not acceptable. If it was going on your property and it was supposed to protect from a spill of toxic liquids getting into you well water, or from your dog drinking it. Would you want "drain holes" in a spillguard you are renting? This company's management is all about getting paid top dollar for poor quality repairs, and waiting until they get called on it before they attempt to do anything about it. All the good workers who actually care about what kind of job they do end up being fired for saying something or petty stupid things or quit after getting fed up with it. All we want is security in a job that pays the bills, and what we get is worry, worry about getting fired for false accusation, worry about not being able to pay the bills, worry about if you can get the job done to the satisfaction of the customer, worry about if OSHA or the EPA will shut you down and you are out of a job due to shady business that compromises health, safety, and the environment. Skill based pay is a joke when supervisors will refuse to sign off that you have done a certain job or skill, while they make sure that their buddies get their paperwork pencil whipped, so they will get a raise, or sent to a school. The only way to get promoted here is to be a tattle tail or butt kisser, that results in other people getting fired.
