Pros
Good work schedule Monday-Friday overtime on Saturdays was on a volunteer basis when offered. Immediate supervisor very helpful. Good co-workers. Working outdoors. Good exercise.
Cons
Have to use your own personal vehicle a lot of wear and tear. You are reimbursed for mileage but that doesn't come close to cover costly auto repairs! Hard to get in full time unless your in one of the few union shops. Looks like they hire and use a lot of contractors and let you go at end of contract. Expect to walk many miles daily. Phasing out meter readers jobs in Ohio in the near future just like they did in Pennsylvania-smart meters. No benefits for contractors.
