Pros

It was a job I guess

Cons

Everything else... Gave them a few years of my life with horrible work life balance, but still continued working there because I needed the money. Several of us were recently laid off and promised severance packages. Here it is later and still not packages have been provided to any of us. They lied to us and now many of us were involved in the storms. Now not only only are we without a job, but without any type of funds to start over again. Very hurt.

Pros

CTDI has programs in place that help individuals grow in their professional, and every day lives. The Parsons have a vision for excellence and expect nothing less. Everything I learned at CTDI, has translated well to other positions of leadership I have held. The benefits are second to none and you will create bonds with people here that will last a life time. CTDI has so much potential, and I only wish them the best in their future endeavors.

Cons

The reason I decided to not give CTDI a higher rating, largely has to do with the fact that many "Good ole boys" get put into positions they have no business in. The second part of this, is the Upper management seems to put a lot of stock into these people, and when their short coming are exposed. Often time upper management take a "The sky is falling" approach. They will quickly throw their supervisors, and repair managers under the bus when talking to the executive team. They also will terminate good people, just to prove a point. This can come across as archaic in nature. There are so many talented people there at the Lakeside branch. However, they are often over looked and treated poorly. Unfortunately, this has caused many of these talented individuals to leave the company. Many of the managers are not very tech savvy, and get away with sitting in front of their laptops barking orders. I doubt my senior repair manager, and ops manager even knew how to read a schematic. Much less try to drive certain processes that were necessary to deliver results.

Pros

Good Benefits, Decent Salary, Challenging

Cons

If your last name isn't Parsons you don't matter to them. They regularly lay people off no matter how long you've worked there

Thank you for acknowledging our excellent salary and benefits packages. We want to be competitive in these areas because we very much value the work of our employees and credit our continued success to the members of our work teams throughout the company. While business needs do require us to make tough decisions sometimes concerning our labor needs in order to keep the company healthy , overall we have a very stable and positive work environment where our employees are valued and rewarded.
