Pros
I took the company up on their providing hotel accommodations. This allowed me to work longer hours, meal expenses up to $50 a day, and personal mileage at (.43) per mile. There were 15 work site and plenty of opportunity to test and install software. I networked with several IT people and some other career areas of interest during the project.
Cons
The tough part was 10-12 hours days. For the last 3 weeks, I worked (6) days. The second challenge as the project progressed was drive times from hotel to work site turned into up to 60 minutes or 45 miles. Except for 2-3 days I was up at 5:00am and did not get back to the hotel before 6pm. "Field Service" is not for everyone. The company provided support services (hotel, food, mileage, 24/7 phone support) to get the job done.
