Pros

Good pay, good benefits, if you enjoy working in the field with contractors, it's an exciting career. When you get hired your sent to Pumps 101 training which is very difficult but the knowledge you gain is priceless.

Cons

Management micro manages the sales team. Sales reps are consistently monitored by management by GPS tracking. Very hard to bring in business. The pumping rental business has become super competitive, Godwins pricing is usually much higher than the competition making it more difficult to close deals.
