Pros

The people I work with and my higher ups are helpful and passionate about the company's success. The benefits are great and at a low cost. They treat employees here very well and it's a great team environment. We all want to see each other succeed. It's a growing company with many opportunites and a lot of room for employees to grow!

Cons

It is a quota driven environment so you need to work hard and sometimes work over time. This could be a con to some who are not used to working in a higher pressure environment, but if you thrive under pressure and don't mind occasional long hours then it is not too bad!

Pros

Good equipment, pay and benefits. Everything's SAFETY FIRST and they have a great crew. Best part, plenty of room to grow.

Cons

Only con I've seen is that you have a fall hazard. That's why their first priority is safety.
