Pros

Good place to start to know about soil and concrete testing. That knowledge will help a long way in the inspection field. I also recommend for students in college to do an intern or work part time. They contribute well to people where in school and hours were flexible for such schedule, especially if you work in the lab. Great starting point for anyone with no knowledge of construction. I recommend starting off in the lab it will have you overly prepared to work in the field as a technician.

Cons

Pay was not that great You have to force them (especially as a student who is eager) to give you an opportunity in other areas of the company so you can expand your knowledge and gain adequate experience for yourself.

The work environment is good with little micromanagement. Good experience in many facets of the industry. Opportunities for growth and managerial skills if you work hard.

Cons

Relatively low wages compared to the industry standards. Education reimbursement can be improved.
