Pros

None, that I've seen after being with the company for more than a year and a half. Maybe steady work through Covid but still contracted it from a coworker, so that's awesome.

Cons

Low pay Management is clueless Supervisors in field are just as clueless Employees are treated as expendable Travel without compensation No paid holidays Must use vacation if you're sick, no sick leave. No tools program or compensation No upward mobility, rather hire instead of promoting within. Definitely a glass ceiling, best way to get a raise is to leave.
