Pros

learned about plumbing and how to handle stress and the typeof business i do not want to work in. i had a nice cubicle with very nice view of a wall that I was blessed to look at for 10 hours every day.

Cons

Nepotism, Have to be in old boy club, have to drink, no family/work balance unless your family works at location. Generally, the cutomsers are not very nice and really donot care about you. You have to be a kiss butt and give them your whole life. do not ask for a raise - it will not happen. smaller suppliers pay better.

Pros

Huge office space and freedom to work independently in break rooms instead of being stuck at a desk. They have many opportunities for growth but the high paying roles are salaried and are paid once a month instead of biweekly. Overall a great company with good benefits

Cons

Lower pay than normal for the work

Pros

Stable company with strong financial backing and deep pockets. Solid commission opportunities once you build a strong client base. Certain regions and business groups are willing to invest in and support business growth.

Cons

Some regions are under constant pressure to cut costs, making it increasingly difficult to service customers effectively and grow the business. Management is often absent and lacks understanding of the day-to-day realities of running such a lean operation. Overall talent quality has been declining, and the management compensation and bonus structure frequently drives irrational decision-making.
