Pros

WFH flexibility, nice people, no one wanting to show off, company cares about people, learning opportunities, investment in products and technology for the products.

Cons

They say they are trying to be more modern, but this stops at middle management. When senior leadership is needed, they don't really care. Very hierarchical/old fashioned. Boomers in power are still behaving as you would expect them to. If acceptable results are being delivered, it doesn't really matter how, you just need to keep doing it. Heavy workload for all. The care they have for their products is not the same for their processes and policies. Company works in silos. Chaotic. Each area behaves differently. Each region does what they want. Slow in decision making. Low salary.

Pros

- Decent pay and good benefits - work truck with gas card -good experience

Cons

- management is disconnected from field employees - review process does not reflect employee performance since managers do not go out in field in order to properly assess job performance - poor communication which leads to chaotic project implementation - no standardization of necessary info for each customer site. You walk in completely blind each time you visit a customer you’ve never been to - safety is important, but corporate pushes redundant messaging so frequently i believe it has the opposite of the intended effect - forced to wear long sleeves FR shirts in hot weather even when you are not exposed to fire hazards any more than a standard office employee
