Pros

I don't have to spend my own money on gas, that is really the only good thing about what I do.

Cons

If you want to have any work/life balance, I am really saying ANY, do not work for this company. I am a fan of working hard and doing everything I can but there comes a point where it just become ridiculous. I never thought I would hate going to work EVERYDAY as much as I do now. It wouldn't be a bad job if I wasn't getting woken up from emails, calls, and texts at 6:30 every morning then trying to fall asleep at midnight to the same.

Pros

Company Car Everything else is utterly horrible

Cons

-Ridiculously long hours -Job sites that span 30-150 miles in length -Lied about pay. They say that they'll start you off at 17+ and hour but then you find out (after being hired) that's your pay is based on scores, commissions, and customer reviews -Management made me drive my own car when I lived 60 miles away but gave company cars to employees that lived close to headquarters -TERRIBLE MANAGEMENT. They will not solve any of your problems and constantly work you until you're burnt out. They'll even set you up for assignments during your lunch break -Understaffed -doc your pay for idiotic reasons such as reversing out of a parking space in your company car, driving over 45 miles an hour on the highway, etc -Hire anyone off the street after only 1 interview YOU'D BE BETTER OFF WORKIG FOR BEST BUY, THE APPLE STORE, or MCDONALD's. I PRAY THAT YOU LISTEN TO THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS ON THIS WEBSITE BECAUSE THEY ARE ALL TRUE. MASTEC WRITES THE POSITIVE REVIEWS TO OFFSET THE NEGATIVE RESPONSES THAT THE EMPLOYEES POST ON HERE.

Pros

Company work van and gas card. Some of the Co-Workers are awesome people.

Cons

If you hate your family, work here and never see them again! Your day will start when you leave your house at 5:30 am to be at your job by 8am (you don't start getting paid until 8am). You will work through your breaks and lunches (regardless of state and federal laws) and arrive home at 11pm (don't get paid for your 40 - 50 mile ride home either) to be in bed by midnight. Then you will repeat this until you are physically and mentally unable to continue working. Then they will throw you away like trash and replace you like a new cog in their machine. You will do work that require more people in order to complete safely, but you will never receive any help, as it is considered a waste of resources. You will receive the most basic tools to get the job done and will need to purchase the rest of the tools yourself. Also, things like drill bits and screws is all on you. Any new tools or consumables can take 4 months to receive, but you are still expected to get the job done. Talking to HR is like talking to the wall. When bringing up safety matters to management I was told (and I quote) "If you don't want to work, we can have a separate conversation about that".
