Pros

The pro is that you have a lot of time to yourself, if you enjoy that kind of thing. If you're a recent graduate, this is a good place to start if you have no other options.

Cons

The pay is unrealistic for the work performed. I was a field tech and that was quite the miserable experience for me personally. Being a field tech requires staying on the field all day until construction is complete for the day, regardless of the weather. It's very labor intensive and requires carrying a nuclear gauge around. The manager was very petty! Upper management is quite selfish and self-serving.

A big mistake

Pros

Get some compensation weekly - salary one week, expenses the next. Co workers are mostly nice. I cannot think of anything else.

Cons

We have to sign our major equipment in and out every day (which most other companies do not do). Not enough equipment for everyone and in the morning it becomes a rush to be able to get what you need. Upper level never seems to care when we cannot accurately cover our sites and often promises people they will get a technician only to cancel on them when no equipment is available to cover the site. I have had clients complain about this, and that when they call in to ask why all they are given is excuses. Compensation and benefits are not what I was originally promised. Little regard for work-life balance and certain uppers have even said multiple times to succeed in company you must not have one. Time is not guaranteed so if there is no work we get no pay. Advancement opportunities are not as promised originally. Raises are based on certifications and experience but the pay is very poor, one has to pay for their certs (it is reimbursed after but they are very expensive proportional to what we get in return), and there is little time to do so.
