Pros

There is something different everyday. You may be fixing equipment one minute and then setting up a job the next minute. The people are all good to work with as we work together with other stores and stores in different states. There is plenty of overtime, almost too much. The division handles Power, Temperature, Pumps, Dehumidification, Compressed Air and everything that goes with it so it hardly ever gets boring. The pay is great if you're in one of the union shops, but no so bad in the non union shops if you know your craft, are willing to learn and most of all work. Even though Sunbelt is a big company, there still is a family atmosphere and the CEO and VP's are regular guys that you can have a beer with.

Cons

Employees are spread thin (The reason for all the overtime). Emergency jobs take you away from family often without notice. You're on call 24/7 and that gets old QUICK. In the busy season, it seems like the company fly's by the seat of their pants (disorganized chaos most of the time). Sales doesn't talk to service and the technician gets the pleasantries when on the jobsite when everything goes south.

Pros

A check, uniforms. Had a good inspection for equipment, then changed to some other form. Probably something some know nothing in management created.

Cons

No challenge for a real technician, it was a Jiffy-Lube for generators. Money wasn't there of course. No: advancement opportunity, training, appreciation.
