Pros

The only thing that made this company tolerable was some of the employees who actually cared

Cons

You are treated like you are nothing more than a number, it's atrocious how bad communication is with management and the office. You have no stability in your rotations and no idea where you're going and for how long. The pay is below average in this industry and cut backs have made it worse. It means nothing to run staff so short handed that it's border line illegal but when there is even one too many staff there is a driver there that morning to keep "ratio" on track. If this company has any respect for its staff they certainly don't know how to show it. I wouldnt ever recommend anyone work for them until they get their acts together. I hope

Pros

Plenty of hours between 75 to 80 hours a week minimum. Good place to get experience as a stepping stone.

Cons

You're always on call it is mandatory that you work three weekends a month both Saturday and Sunday including the 5-day work weeks Monday through Friday Technician. As a coordinator you work 6 day work weeks Sunday through Friday you only get Saturdays off it's a salary based position so you get no compensation if you work over 8 hours a day as a coordinator and you will work more than 8 hours a day your minimum will be 12 to 14 hours a day up to a maximum of 18 hours a day regularly.
