Pros

The team is a proper team, and there is a cohesiveness and logic to the work goals laid out in front of the hands. There are relatively clear goals for doing a "good" job, and the support that you receive is practically familial, albeit remote in most instances. Plenty of adventure, new places, faces and occasional sightseeing if you find the opportunity to do so. I learned so much sciency stuff that truly satiated my appetite for knowledge, and as a wise woman noted, once I thought I "knew-it-all" I was bored of it. I've never been seen and recieved so clearly (and with validating support!) by leadership before. (And I always recognize there is more to know. I had had enough of it for a period of time.) I will say that working here has made it more apparent that PUBLIC WATER INFRASTRUCTURE SHOULD NEVER BE PRIVATIZED. And please filter your water. Wastewater facilities that you will visit are going to smell absolutely foul 100% of the time, but the hiring manager(s) had the decency to clearly explain that pre-hire. Thank you for being honest. I realized later that there is no way to really prepare oneself for that workplace condition. If you can get past the notion of waste water in the air contaminating every thing in the immediate vicinity of (and on!) you, and don't let the offensively foul odor of waste water in clarifiers get to you immediately, then you may do well here long-term. (Pro or Con, still not sure.) I really liked being an FST here, and if it weren't for the 'cons', had no good reason to leave.

Cons

Road Life; living out of a box gets exhausting for a multitude of reasons. 75% Travel was not an understatement = you can bet on not sleeping at home for 273.75 days out of the year. Wastewater facilities smell absolutely foul 100% of the time. (But, the hiring manager(s) had the decency to clearly explain that pre-hire. Thank you for being honest.) If you can get past the notion of waste water in the air contaminating every thing in the immediate vicinity of (and on!) you, and don't let the foul odor of waste water repel you immediately, then you may do well here long-term. (Pro or Con, still not sure)

Pros

-They have great befits and are extremely flexible. Great co-workers and people with lots of experience in the field. -Decent pay and benefits.

Cons

-Stepping stone for lots upper management, they will not last more than a 3 year average and they move on after they come and leave a mess for everyone else to clean up. Have seen quite a few come and go and they all come in with aggressive plans and move on to bigger positions with sister companies and leave us in limbo with a bigger mess in our hands. -Department Managers get hired with no previous management experience and have no idea what they are doing and DO NOT lead by example and just delegate their work to others and take credit for it. -No growth, you can work here and expect to be in the same position for years without any advancement opportunities. -Too many crazy ideas implemented with no real planning and they all seem to fail. -People with 20 + years of knowledge are leaving and they don't do anything to keep them or replace them with enough time for them to train someone new. -No real HR department in place.
