Pros

Easy to climb the ladder with hyper growth within the company

Hyper growth within the company takes a toll on all departments. Short staffing / new hires playing catch up while grow occurs.

Pros

When you're out on site there is a culture of safety everybody goes home safe.

Cons

The company has really weird safety policies that show a lack of education about construction safety. Many of the Crew/Site leads and Lead Persons understand safety very well but the corporate policies are not made by electricians and show more concern about insurance premiums than the empoyees actual safety. Most of Gaylor's safety policies are "corrections" from past incidents.
