Pros

There we no "pros" attached to working for this bullying thug of corporate mess. Take my sincerest advice and don't look for work here.

Cons

Long (unpaid) working hours - 60 - 70 hrs a week being the expected norm (paid for 37) No support nor even understanding of nature and complexity of work from management with zero engineering capability (being wholly sales focussed). Entrenched culture of employee expendability Very poor engineering capability (verging on dangerous incompetence) Heavily reliant on cheap (desperate?) migrant labour from EU and Asian Subcontinent

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
