Pros

Company truck is a must. And if you want overtime you can have it. This company will help you learn the basics to move forward with your career.

Cons

The management will let you down, time and time again. Worst management I have ever worked for. They are quick to throw the field workers under the bus. Without the field workers the company wouldn't survive. The company is based off office hours vacation, (another words if you are scheduled to work on a weekend holiday better hope your off cause you won't get paid. )
