Pros

CaptiveAire invests in their new employees with multiple training resources including corporate orientation, visits to other sales offices, technical product training, and field service ridealongs. They offer competitive salaries with the opportunity for big earnings with monthly bonuses. CaptiveAire does not remain stagnant by enhancing current products and developing new product lines to bring more value to our customers. I am very happy with my time at CaptiveAire and I look forward to what is in store for the future.

Cons

The construction industry can be rough, there are moments that are stressful. Steep learning curve when starting but if you put in the effort you will receive the reward.

Pros

Great Benefits and Salary Always someone to call for help if needed Encourage learning and gaining more experience each day Always improving product lines Takes advice from the field service techs and makes improvements and redesigns based on what troubles we are seeing You become appreciated for your accomplishments and jobs well done, they make sure to let you know

Cons

Not many downsides to this company in my role that is their direct fault. Its a big corporation and is growing in each market every day so sometimes it feels as though the service departments may be spread too thin. Would not consider having a lot of work and being really busy a con. Scheduling adjustments need to be made often based on your specialties in your role which could sometimes be hard to manage when emergencies come up but it works itself out one way or another.
