Pros

Pay, Benefits. The bonuses are awesome but you have to remember that they are paying you to be on call all the time and away from your home. You won't spend much time there.

Cons

As a Field Engineer you are constantly away from your family. It is tough. If you are in a relationship and you want to be with this person do not take this job. I've just started three months ago and it was hard since I moved from another state. I still haven't decided on whether to staty or leave.
