Pros

Love my co workers Close to home New things daily to do Flexible schedule I fit in as "one of the guys" being female Learned alot from my account manager Yes I recommend this place- family works here too. Moved up 3 times in less than a year- hard work pays off.

Cons

Gave me a raise when I did not ask, but then took it away to give me monthly bonuses. Insurance is high cost, deductible is outrageous. Not compensated for doing others job as well as your own. Deal with lazy people Drivers can be rude Upper management doesn't care about you

Pros

Getting to go to Nemacolin, working for a well-known company.

Cons

The culture that they have created is very toxic, you are made to fear that you will lose your job at any given moment, you have to wear their logo branded on clothing you provide, the 10 hour days M-F during the winter are sad because you get there when it's dark and leave when it's dark, the pay is not competitive to what other companies offer, there was a lot of work place relationships as well and made for an uncomfortable environment when traveling.
