Unless you're a glutton for misery, avoid this company! You'd do right to pass on this employer. - Field Operations Tech Metronet Employee Review

Pros

Tools provided. That sums up the pros. Since there is a twenty word minimum, I'm still typing. Oh,they do pay a minor percentage of your cell phone bill.

Cons

Extremely low pay. Constantly out of equipment that is required to complete an installation. No or disappointing raises. Lowest pay rates in industry. Too long of hours. Stuck being on-call. Use of eta direct routing program is a huge con. Pathetic over management. You will be forced into being a salesman, pushing their mediocre products on good customers. Maybe I'll be blessed and get fired. Please, oh please fire me so I can have some time to apply to a worthwhile company who appreciates it's staff. Oh, and they will track your every move with gps. If you like control freaks and daily frustrations, please apply. We need some more fools to work here so I don't have to be on call every other week.

Pros

Fantastic people and transparency across the department on goals and KPIs necessary for business success.

Cons

I had no previous negative events at Metronet. Expectations can be lofty but are fantastic to continue driving for personal improvement.

Pros

- relatively easy work once trained - efficient workers can complete responsibilities and have free time - generally low-stress if everyone is making progress

Cons

- very low base pay (lowered from 22 to 19/hr to start since the pandemic) - fixed promotion schedule means overachieving is not rewarded - company has regularly been laying people off and promising new tech tools and AI systems will make up for the lack of workers (it has not) - most of the higher-ups in the company are white men that seem to be entirely disconnected from the reality of their employees - increasingly higher demands regarding production time and workflows, yet company refuses to hire more workers
