Pros

A weekly paycheck is about all you could count on for being consistent. The Maintenance Manager was a nice person, but employees ran the show. Some employees pick and choose the hours they work.

Cons

Poor management and inexperienced supervisors are going to hurt this location. Mechanics used their company issued phones to order parts when they wanted to, but only if it was convenient for them. They liked to go pick parts up to get out of the shop for a while each day.

Pros

We used to have to come in every morning and stay in the office for at least an hour, then go out into the field, come back at least an hour before 5pm and stay in the office. They changed it so we only have to come in in the morning and it's so much nicer.

Cons

I really didn't get along with the sales manager. On my first day, the manager who hired me announced he was leaving. About two weeks into my employment, the new sales manager wanted to make crazy changes to show his authority. It went downhill from there. He made major cutbacks and the things he kept where supposed to be thought of as gifts, such as bottled water.
