Pros

You are not trapped in an office all day. You get to meet people. The work is challenging; you never know what you will run across. If you want to move, it is possible to transfer.

Cons

The company does not care about its employees or its customers. they prefer to hire unskilled workers at a low rate rather than pay those who know what they are doing, what they are worth. The parts you need to do the repairs are never available when needed. managers expect techs to lie to customers on a regular basis. they are very sexist. I have only met one female tech in 20 years working there even though I have worked out of 8 branches. I heard there are 2 of them.

Pros

I've worked for the company for 40+ years, I'm treated with respect and my efforts are recognized by my Director and other ADT leaders. They give me the autonomy to manage my department and value my experience and insight. They offer a solid benefits package. ADT leads by example with their cultural markers and ensures that rules and laws are followed. I love the collaboration I have with our other departments.

Cons

Obviously, we all want more money, especially given the prices of everything, it's always nice to make more money, but I've checked the compensation and benefits in similar positions outside of ADT and I feel ADT is paying a fair wage and when I factor in the benefits package, they are above average in overall compensation.
