      Pros

      » A culture that challenges employees at every level to perform on a daily basis » Abundant opportunities to apply a broad spectrum of knowledge and skills » A great environment to grow quickly given the right executive sponsorship and visibility » A great place for truly talented and passionate individuals to invest a great deal of time and build a career

      Cons

      » Management generally not receptive to change; emphasis on reactionary decisions - preoccupied with "fighting fires" » A demand for productivity and efficiency that unfortunately ignores employee satisfaction and concerns » Widespread duplicate and incomplete work, frequent functional silos and counter productive sub-cultures; poor standardization of practices and outdated tools typical » A management culture that promotes coercion as an accepted practice to drive results

      Too Many Egos, Not Enough Leaders

      Pros

      People. As many have stated prior, there are some very talented, dedicated, and generally good people. There is an opportunity to gain experience and responsibility beyond your pay grade.

      Cons

      Micromanagement - every level below VP Manage to spreadsheets and conflicting reports - too reactionary, not enough technology to help the field. Too much busy work - field offices should concentrate on delivering the proper customer experience and technician development. Current audit process is counter productive. Too many "know it alls" - leadership is weak on mentoring, leading, and team building. Heavy on ego and justifying their jobs. Work/Life Balance - you'll hear it mentioned as being important but don't attempt to practice it. You may be perceived as not having pride in your work or being committed. Benefits and pay. Although, if the environment was better I'm sure most wouldn't bat an eye at the compensation package. Too many threats of losing employment; not enough action to build a winning team.

      Pros

      Road trips pay was the only reason to hang onto the job. Micro management by management that really have no in the feild experience.

      Cons

      Finish your route for the day, get handed another route. Very typical to have 12 -16 hour days. If you refuse the added routes, you can be termed. Usually make you work in adverse weather conditions. Backstabbing part of the job. Trust no one!
