Pros

There is absolutely no pros.

Cons

They micromanager everything. You can’t work over 40 hours with out begging like a child, and they don’t even get back to you. I was hired with a written statement that I got paid from doorstep to doorstep. All of a sudden they changed it. The president tells everybody that they are replaceable. The HR department doe absolutely nothing. If you need any assistance HR tells you to go to your manager and then your manager says go to HR. You get no where. They don’t give raises. But we get a jelly of the month club. Every 3 months you get a hat in the mail as a “thank you for your hard work” but they won’t give pay raises. All the managers on the East Coast are useless. They don’t care about anything expect themself. If for some reason you are ever in trouble if somebody calls your driving in, or if a contractor complains. You are automatically in the wrong and have to prove that you are right.

Pros

Our teams feel like a family, and there is a direct connection with each department whenever questions or support are needed. There are also strong opportunities for advancement for those who demonstrate a solid work ethic and commitment to growth. At the end of the day, this is the best locate company I have ever been a part of. While there is always room for improvement, the fact that our concerns and ideas are genuinely heard and acted upon speaks volumes. It shows that management values its team, and it creates a culture where both technicians and leaders feel respected, supported, and motivated every day.

Cons

Managers often have additional responsibilities that can take time away from their primary focus, which should be managing their teams and maintaining safety and quality at all times. Many of these added tasks can pull attention away from day-to-day operations. Communication could also be improved across all levels to ensure expectations, updates, and support are clearly shared from every direction.
