Pros

Interesting work much of which is self-directed and self-taught. Support of best of breed, internationally respected company. Car and phone allowance, excellent compensation.

Cons

Required to work with high voltage, plumbing and mechanical components with little or no training. Management more focused on customer acquisition rather than customer retention with consequence of corporate culture that sees customers and low-performing employees as the 'enemy'.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
