Micromanagement at its finest

Pros

Used to work for a really great company which got bought out by SG. Work is easy if its an avg day. Company vehicle

Cons

24/7 On Call 7 days in a row, 15 days a month. Managers not required to help in rotation even in their area even though it is a service industry. Micromanage every aspect of your day. Vehicle tracking and point system so if you do 1MPH over the limit you get points which eventually get you reprimanded and fired.

Proceed with caution

Pros

compensation, ability to work with new technology - SG is very open to the use of developing technology. Although training is seldom part of the equation - it's normally "trial by fire".

Cons

benefits, lack of career path, very little internal promotion. Health insurance is not much better than zero health insurance - and just about as expensive. There are no defined career paths - and internal promotion is more a function of who, not what, you know. It's a constant struggle to make sure you are recognized and compensated fairly for what you do.
