Pros

The pros to working here are the pay you bi-weekly. The job is very easy, but other than that I cannot think of any other positives to working for this company.

Cons

The management is incompetent, the wages are very low, the work environment is toxic, both literally and figuratively, the management does not care employees are subjected to dangerous work conditions, 2 bathrooms for 40 people, you work on a time clock, they try to not to pay you when office has to be closed, the managers bully employees, the managers put policies in effect, but only enforce when they feel like it and have special rules for their pet employees.

Pros

The local teams doing the work in the branches are the only team members that make it a positive experience.

Cons

Senior field leadership and it's byzantine hierarchy is filled with matrixed leadership jobs for people who have been good soldiers with long tenure. They don't know anything about the actual work at the branch level or in the markets. Often they spend thousands at meetings in hotels and at bars in the evening which is extremely unprofessional. These same individuals press their political advantage to make sure the people they don't like get dismissed or marginalized and often move people into leadership to virtue signal DEI values. C-suite has been lost since 2021. Budget forecasting, fleet planning, and execution has been weak and lacks strong leadership position. Geographic territories don't make any sense and regions are oddly divided up based on tenure loyalties and not the needs of the business. Senior leadership can be counted on to work Tuesday - Thursday but have no problem asking front line employees to diminish their salary with 60 hour weeks, and pointless Saturday shifts.
