Pros

A great training program and ongoing training when necessary. Keeps Inspectors up to date daily on changes per Client requirements

Cons

During disasters, can be difficult to get through to an actual person during midday. Contract Inspectors need to be prepared for out of pocket expenses during the first month. Expenses can be up to $2000 to $3000 the first month. Delays in reimbursement for out of pocket expenses can take as long as 2-3 months. Advise: Keep a detailed log of expenses on a daily basis if possible.

Pros

Travel to places you don't know they exist

Cons

1. Short notice to report to a field office (often within 24 hours) with little to no idea of what to expect, where you will be working, where you will stay, or how long your deployment will last. Work allocation is entirely management-driven, meaning you can sit without any assignments for months or even a year. 2. Unfair Quality Control: Quality control (QC) inspectors often create unnecessary friction. Reviews and corrections are frequently based on subjective bias or a complete lack of knowledge—such as out-of-state QC inspectors overriding local inspectors who actually understand the regional context and situation. 3. Deeply Inequitable Work Distribution: The process for assigning work lacks fairness. It is not uncommon to be released and sent home just a week after starting before you're getting up to speed—while new cohorts of inspectors continue to arrive for training. Internal Work Competition: QC inspectors who have been in the field for months are competing for active assignments when the workflow slows down.
