My experience at Vector has been awesome and continues to be.

Business Outlook

Pros

This is the only job I've had where I have been given the opportunity to grow, meet the CEO in person, and work with a diverse group of amazing coworkers and people. My suggestions are taken seriously and implemented. My accomplishments and hard work is recognized and rewarded. Vector really cares about its employees and customers in their consistent improvements on both fronts. I really enjoy my job and the people I work with everyday.

Cons

My only con in this job is that it takes 10 years of employment before we get to have three weeks of paid vacation time. For the past seven years I've only had two weeks. Other companies in similar industries offer four weeks right off the bat. I have worked hard to become a supervisor and have less vacation time than some of my employees who have been here 10 years.

Stressful environment, minimal compensation.

Business Outlook

Pros

Health benefits, 401k, as much overtime as you want to work

Cons

Mandatory on call, 12 hour shifts, constantly called on days off to pick up time - often more than once, poor pay when compared to the stress/expectations of the job - you're not treated like an employee or part of a team, you're just a body filling a seat. Employees are over worked, underpaid and under appreciated.
