Pros

On the road a lot collecting data. Got to see the countryside and meet some interesting people. My coworkers were awesome. The software was good.

Cons

There are so many...looks like nothing has changed. This company was such a mess it lost its contracts in WV. There statistical models were awful. They treated their employees like trash. I was asked to get 300 locations a day in a rural area with no population....I got a sixth of that a day driving two hours to the location...2 hours back, then working 4 hours in rural WV and getting 50 locations a day...I was proud. I got fired for poor performance. Haha. I had to drive sometimes 30 minutes up creek beds, and 3 mile long driveways just to get to a gate. The company was clueless.

Pros

outdoors recreational opportunities and cheap real estate in the Northeast Kingdom; oh, yeah, and they have never had a lay-off due to lack of work

Cons

"micro management" (pun intended); lack of any professional management skills amongst the owners; when work runs out, good employees are fired "for cause", and to avoid an increase in their premiums, unemployment claims are denied and fought to the highest level; average length of employment = 2.5 years; no Human Resources manager has even lasted that long;

Pros

Pretty location with a leading edge product, although software quality control was a huge issue.

Cons

Owners treat employees horribly, always looking over their shoulders and expecting the worst of everybody. It's a huge red flag when a vast majority of a 25+ year old company's employees have been there for 2 years or less. Their rate of employee turnover should tell you something is wrong with this company.
