Pros

Salary is good and vacation days are pretty good. Benefits are only ok.

Cons

There are over 700 reviews, look for consistency. My issues were with the management for the most part. No good feedback; very poor training. One associate could not do their job for a month because the company was in a dispute with the software developer. I assumed that the issues were with another location when I was looking at the glass door star rating, but the issues stem from the top and that affects the entire company’s culture. The company has terrible retention. I have many more cons, but I suggest looking at several reviews; don’t just take my word for it. However, I would dismiss any review that has no Pros or no Cons, every company has good and bad points.

Pros

Good group of people in local office.

Cons

Stuck in the past. Unwilling to consider updating methods or procedures. "We've done it this way for 30 years and it has worked." Sales relies upon project engineers to do most of their work for them. When volume of work is slow that becomes the engineers responsibility to go find new clients. Can't reliably pay the most basic of utility bills on time. I've seen the power cut off 2x and the gas this past winter.
