Pros

Company vehicle is provided for some field based employees.

Cons

Reviews of AFL from office-based employees seem neutral to positive; however, field-based employees are recruited based on inaccurate job ads. Watch out for the bait and switch! The travel 100%, Saturday work is mandatory, and the job classifications are unethical at best. Very little PTO, and terrible benefit coverage. AFL doesn't appear to share the cost of health insurance with employees. The per paycheck premiums are extremely high for the coverage. AFL doesn't contribute to H.S.A. They provide very few company paid benefits. The company provided life insurance is pathetic (a flat amount, not equivalent to annual base pay) and the supplemental life is expensive. Onboarding processes are broken. Severe lack of organization within management. No support or reliable point of contact for new employees. Field employees are scheduled to be onsite but aren't provided the scope of work to be completed, what's been accomplished, outstanding issues, clear location information etc.

Pros

Salary range is good for the industry

Cons

The company direction is severely lacking. Things went extremely downhill when the President/CEO got walked out the door for embezzlement about 1 year ago. Also, some of the RSM's ate knowingly allowed to make up stuff so that they look good. Be careful and watch your 6!!

Pros

You get a company vehicle if you are tech 3, but it is GPS monitored.

Cons

Poorly managed too the point where this division could be a tax write off. Poor communication from overloaded project managers. Area manager hired his father as project manager and son who is probably the company's worst employee to a junior estimators position. Its literally shocking how poorly run this division is but reflects well with the number of major contracts lost over the last few years which haven't been replaced. The employees come and go as if through a revolving door with only few favorites staying any length of time.
