Pros

The ESOP program can be great if you stay to get fully vested. Good variability between office work and field work, if you like to spend some time on project sites. Runzheimer plan offered as a supplement to requiring a newer car; the program is nice if you don't get abandoned with a car payment.

Cons

Little to no flexibility for office hours. Minimal benefits outside of ESOP shares. Started off only two weeks of vacation and one week of sick leave, no rollovers. Workplace atmosphere not very professional. Upper management not afraid to fire employees without much of a plan. UM also willing to force employees into work they don't want to do because they don't want to find the employees elsewhere.

Pros

I would agree with the other reviewers that the wage was adequate for the position. Their ESOP retirement plan is unmatched assuming it retains its value and you stay long enough to be full vested. Usually enough to keep you busy throughout the entire day even if some of it was busy work. Adequate benefits including healthcare and vacation.

Cons

The management has to be the worst part of Rieth-Riley. If you at all raise a question about something you think is wrong, might as well pack your bags. Married couples in management in the same department should never happen. Have a family? Not now, because you are expected to work 60 to 70 hrs a week. Want to plan for the weekend? Forget it, you can't plan anything since scheduling is a nightmare. Want to move up? Better have a degree because you are stuck where you are at if you don't. You also better know somebody in the company to get hired. If you don't, you are then the first to be let go.
