Pros

People at a direct management position, or below genuinely care. They fight for what they can get, but schedule and budget dictate everything.

Cons

PM and above don't seem to care at all. As soon as a project goes south(even if it was underbid) prepare to be blamed for everything all while being told that the best technicians "learn in the field." I get that there's some self learning portion, but most employees go 2 years before their first training class if they get one at all.

Pros

Competitive pay, flex vacation/ PTO

Cons

Organizational restructuring seems more frequent than other companies I’ve worked for. Constant changes in processes. In four years I’ve seen change in incentive plan twice and not for the better even though they’ll tell you it is. You can make great money in sales still. Corporate alignment of rollouts of product timeline v. actual reality in the area level.
