Pros

1.) Coworkers at all levels are generally pleasant. 2.) The company is pretty good about offering field technicians the chance to become certified in a variety of areas. 3.) Their per diem is better than any contractor I'd come across. 4.) Their fleet vehicles were relatively new and kept in decent shape. 5.) They were pretty good about getting employees whatever equipment they needed, within reason. 6.) Tuition reimbursement plan.

Cons

Extremely poor pay for the nature of the work and the amount of responsibility. The benefits are only partially paid for by the company. Occasional long hours and/or weekend work. Occasional miscommunication between managers and subordinates.

Pros

Work/life balance Career advancement training opportunities

Cons

Toxic top-down management culture. Environmental employees are expendable. If you aren’t an engineer, good luck. Management does not care to get to know their employees and favoritism is the norm, not the exception. Unrealistic expectations from new hires. Low compensation for industry standards.
