Pros

Lots of money when busy, you work 80 to 120 hours a week. Free housing for now. Every time you see 4 stars or better they are the management that doesn't having nothing better to do. beside this and tracking your GPS

Cons

Over worked after working 80 to 100 hours a week for 2 to 3 months you get burn out. You cannot trust anyone. For some reason the management loves drama and will start something so they would fight. No joking manager was try to get a former employee and I to fight in his office. The most disrespectful people work for this company. Only worries about money and never your safety. Doesn't train people to do proper job. One day someone will die and its your fault not companies. You will be liable for their death because you signed off the paper work and you find out you was not properly trained to be doing that job or giving that class. Changes company policies every day and only informs whoever is close by. HR is in another country and they refuse to give you the number. Makes you pull Hazardous trailers even if you was not certified. Possible still going on today even with the slow downs. They cheat customers all the time. If someone from marathon looks at their past billing and question half of them they would see that management was lying on half the billings. They forced employees to get signed. You have to comply or you would not get hours. No advancements. Promises never kept. Shady Business practices. Stay away from this company if you’re ex-military. They will take advantage of your values and ethics.

Pros

My pay was somewhat decent, though there are no cost of living raises (not in the six years I was there). I cannot speak for others' pay. I did once receive a bonus for exemplary service.

Cons

NO communication!!! The pencil-pushers decide how things will be done, and that's what you are made to do, no matter how asinine it is in actual practice. = STRESS In my personal experience, I was chastised for stepping in and trying to pick up the slack when we didn't have someone to do tasks that weren't considered my responsibility, or someone just wouldn't do them.

Pros

When there is work, they will keep you as busy as they want you to be. They want you in the field 100% of the time.

Cons

The leadership did not care about honoring what they said. They didn't want me to have more than a day or two off after 3 weeks gone.
