Don't Do It - Underground Utility Locator G-TEL Employee Review

work on your own schedule

long days, hot days, cold days

-Good pay -Company vehicle -Good excersise

-Told you will receive 3 months of training/shadowing but will be placed in the field on your own after 3 weeks. -City and utility records are often wrong, difficult to interpret -If you're a floater, you will be driving across the city for tickets. Each area has different ways the utilities work, which feels like you're constantly starting over learning wise. -Will be on-call before you receive proper training for SSI's and other areas -Was supplied multiple trucks that had issues, breaking down, flat tires, no air conditioning throughout the summer. -The people I shadowed for training didn't allow me to do anything but watch. -Constant rule changes -Told you are too slow, but receive constant large difficult tickets compared to the area guys who can complete multiple tickets due to utilities clears or resprays
