Pros

- The source group is filled with very capable and helpful people - Hours in office are flexible - Clear path for advancement - I was offered a signing bonus - Hourly workers get 1.5x for OT pay, salaried workers get their regular rate for OT in the field - Benefits are good: 401k matching, many healthcare options, maternity and paternity leave

Cons

- Due to clients, project schedules fluctuate wildly. It was very hard to plan anything personal due to not knowing if I would be in town every other week. - Hours in the field can sometimes be challenging. Usually we were at the plant at 7 AM and sometimes did not leave until 9 PM or later. - Would often have to drive a pickup truck and trailer 8+ hours to get to a project. - Management and more senior employees are always stressed out about workload.

Pros

Great opportunities for career progression, and very good if you're a graduate looking to build a career. Good employee pension and benefits. Salary is decent I think - some places will offer better, but there's a lot worse out there.

Cons

Very graduate focused, older people seem conspicuous by their absence, unless they have a very specific set of technical skills that are hard to find. Very corporate, although this could be seen as a positive by some people.
