Pros

There are really good people who care about the job they do and are doing the best they can with what they are given.

Cons

This truly is the most toxic and dysfunctional environment I've ever worked. It's an environment that stifles creativity and does not foster innovation or new ideas. As a result, they are constantly reacting and not being proactive. You have various departments trying to cover themselves and blaming other departments when something goes wrong rather than accepting responsibility and working towards a solution. This all trickles from the top down. Leadership only wants to be told what they want to hear and as a result things keep running the same way despite serious red flags on compliance, health and safety & human resource issues. Employees are seen as a means to an end rather than valuable resources. This is shown in the cutting of 401K match, lack of raises and constant increase of health benefit costs.

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.
