Pros

Lasting relationships with some co-workers. Great technology and equipment to get the job done. Better than average training programs. Great benefits.

Cons

Promotions are more by the good ole boys system and not merit based. The more capable of performing the more is expected of you with out being compensated for the extra work. Raises, when the company had them were not fairly given out.

Pros

Company has a local terminal in my area. Mechanics worked hard to keep equipment in good condition.

Cons

If you don't have things worked out with day dispatch, forget it. There was only one person on nights/weekends who had a clue. I often wondered if others where mentally capable of doing the job. Qualcom communication appeared to be at the level of a 12 yr. old. I had to pull a leased trailer that had a customer lock on it, when I asked if anyone new anything about the lock on the trailer the response I got back was "yes". Very descriptive.
