Pros

Union Branch of AVI-SPL, better pay, full health dental and eyes, pension 10-12k/yr. over-time and double-time hrs, diverse group of installers. Consistent raises every six months. Mileage pay $20 greater than 55 total miles. Phone bill reimbursement $40.

Cons

No paid vacation but should change with the new S&C contract ending in November of 2017. We missed the new state law by two months in 2014 during negotiations. Long long hours and usually undermanned towards the end of a project.

Pros

Regionally dominant, opportunity for growth is there. Steady work, and management seems to let onsite techs do their best without micromanaging. The service team is top-notch if you ever need to lean on them.

Cons

Benefits. they need to address benefits to help retain top-end talent. PTO and vesting schedule is a little weak. LOTS of middle management in some areas. Health prems and 401k match are also not so great
