      A long stressful up and down tenure

      Department manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good resources and access to info. Majority are good people. Decent benefits. Nationwide. Good place for engineers

      Cons

      Terrible work/life balance. Worked at some level 7 days a week, even on vacations and days off with little compensation. Very few raises outside of the consistent 2%-3% annual 'cost of living adjustment'. Top heavy in management and very protective of their high-end salaries, company profitability and the protected class of principals and engineers. Very high expectations for technician responsibilities while purposely having low pay to maximize profits at all costs. They'll work you to the bone without hesitation.

      Pros

      We provide quality work to our clients. We are an employee owned company. There is opportunities for continuing education. We have a great safety program.

      Cons

      It can be challenging to balance both marketing and business development for 4 different departments. It is also a little bit of a challenge to track successes.
