Pros

-Newer fleet of Trucks and Rental equipment -company supplied uniforms and boots. -Great benefits, especially at Union Shops.

Cons

- Very poor training for new hires. - you are looked at and treated like a tool and not a human being. - there are to many incentives for managers and dispatchers to push the drivers and mechanics to work harder and burn themselves out. -aside from power point presentations and safety videos safety isn't a priority and production always comes first even if it means risking your own safety.

Pros

The local teams doing the work in the branches are the only team members that make it a positive experience.

Cons

Senior field leadership and it's byzantine hierarchy is filled with matrixed leadership jobs for people who have been good soldiers with long tenure. They don't know anything about the actual work at the branch level or in the markets. Often they spend thousands at meetings in hotels and at bars in the evening which is extremely unprofessional. These same individuals press their political advantage to make sure the people they don't like get dismissed or marginalized and often move people into leadership to virtue signal DEI values. C-suite has been lost since 2021. Budget forecasting, fleet planning, and execution has been weak and lacks strong leadership position. Geographic territories don't make any sense and regions are oddly divided up based on tenure loyalties and not the needs of the business. Senior leadership can be counted on to work Tuesday - Thursday but have no problem asking front line employees to diminish their salary with 60 hour weeks, and pointless Saturday shifts.
