Pros

Great job, no complaints. Training was well done, complete and thorough. The supervisor for my area was great. Closing out the job, returning equipment was a smooth process. Would do again, I do recommend it if you are the type of person who wants to be outdoors. Note: Last year at employer should read 2020, not 2022.

Cons

It may be a con for some people that you must supply your own vehicle. It worked well for me at the time and the compensation was very fair.
