Pros

I was able to get great pay with overtime. I found some really good friends. They get free food a lot.

Cons

Poor management. I was not expected to be an electrician. My boss said I needed to know more. I asked what he wanted me to read and he said everything I needed to know was in the code book. I was a dispatcher and he wanted me to tell electricians what to do.

Pros

Tons of growth opportunity for people willing to invest in the company. My department has grown by 400% in the past 10 years. Lots of training provided. PM's are expected to have complete ownership of their projects.

Cons

Going through a digital transformation which should be good in the long term. Work life balance can be tough but it comes in waves.
