Pros

Free CDL-B training and license test given for this job High Pay with little to no college experience required Six figures to be expected easily after 5 years of work Average vacation time per year, with opportunities to get more throughout the year. High expectation of your work being reliable Massive experience that given in this dept that can directly related into work in your own home Laid back crews in this field, leads to lower stress.

Cons

This job is potentially lethal, and has a very high chance of hurting you or others if done incorrectly Not putting in full effort in many tasks can lead to harm, or equipment failure The company offers very little vacation for the first year or two Storms are non negotiable to be worked through and you will be working 16 hours a day until customers are restored This job rarely has hirings and can be difficult to get into Some heavy lifting required and basic mechanical skills are a must. Lots of different soft skills need to be developed. Overall pros outweigh cons by a massive margin, just due to pay
