Pros

Good pay with per diem. Teaches you a lot about project management. The benefits are above-par.

Cons

60+ hours of work per week on average , depending on where you are in the job. This increases to 72, or even 84 hours per week when you get into the swing of things. Life/Work balance is non-existent. When onboarding there is very little in the way of teaching you how to do your job. The engineers on site do a ton of the work with very little recognition.

Thank you for the acknowledgement on the pay, per diem, benefits and learning opportunities. We are bringing on additional resources to assist with the balance and workload. I will let the leaders know about the additional training needed.

Pros

The salary and benefits were appealing to me.

Cons

Executive management seemed reptilian and apathetic. RES Services senior management did not acknowledge my existence or work product. I compare the job with RES Services to a rodeo bull ride. I tried to hang on as long as I could but the psychological pain was too extreme and eventually I got thrown off into the dirt.
