Pros

Steady hours Pays pretty decent Paid training Benefit package is relatively good

Cons

I'm all for being safe but they make it impossible to do your job, they encourage employees to snitch on each other over nonsense by making everyone fill out "close call reports" that you have to do so many a day, even if nothing happened, they tell you just put something like someone without safety glasses. Then the next day, your supervisor will openly call everyone out about the cards (or lack of em) "daily safety meeting" which is just everyone living up for hand smacks Sales and yard staff have ZERO communication, often leaving feild techs in the field with mashines that are not compatible with ours (hours away from your home base) (Atleast people in the shoring department) Is like a middle school all over again, people from different stores will try to throw each other under the bus and start gossiping about each other.

Pros

company truck, company gas, expense account

Cons

Coercive Non-Competes: Instead of retaining talent through fair pay and competent leadership, management uses overreaching non-compete agreements to trap their workforce. Seeing colleagues like Zane bogged down by these heavy-handed tactics shows a fundamental lack of respect for employees' career mobility. Pervasive Micromanagement: Leadership insists on controlling minor details, bottlenecking progress and alienating competent employees. The Sunk Cost Fallacy: Instead of learning from mistakes, senior leaders consistently double down on poor decisions, driven by an unwillingness to admit fault. The Peter Principle in Action: The executive team suffers from an overinflated sense of their own acumen, which barely masks a fundamental lack of competence. People have clearly been promoted to their level of incompetence.
