Pros

Great pay scale and benefits, company vehicle (not for personal use), varied and diversified jobs, easy to work for.

Cons

Very poor mid level management tends to micromanage everything. Central dispatch system is terrible for customer service as the dispatchers have no local knowledge of our service area. Too many mergers over a short period of time has created a ton of confusion for clients, who tend to take it out on the front line technicians that do the work. It can be depressing at times.

Pros

Decent base pay and fast paced work makes the days go by quickly. Lately the company has been actually investing in their new product lines ever since Joakim became our CEO.

Cons

The compensation is lacking. No bonuses whatsoever for senior level engineers even when they're recognized as a key contributor on the team. We are given our 401k match on March 1st to cover the previous year's matches so you lose out on a lot of the year's market gains. The healthcare coverage is mediocre at best for a fortune 500 company. The raises are still given like it's 2018; 3% is considered a "good" merit increase. This is due to the "forced distribution" merit increase system where only "so many" people can receives "above expectations" raises.
