Pros

401k, nice health benefits, management (atleast at my office) is good in the sense of you are able to talk to them whenever you have an issue and they’re usually really nice.

Cons

Terrible pay. I’ve been offered almost double what I make at other firms. I’ve only held out this long because I came to Terracon with no experience or training so I feel like I should stay for a while. Lack of work. For the first year and some change I was working 60+ hours every week in town, then all of a sudden (months before covid) the hours just stopped. Have had to work across the country for some months just due to no one at our office getting anywhere close to 40 hours. Also management seems to be scared to dive into other types of inspection services. Really sucks because I really did like this company and now it’s hard to find a reason to stay.

Pros

Very positive work environment, The office staff is always more than helpful when I need advice or help with paperwork as I am a newer employee. The other field technicians are also helpful with advice or just general questions on company protocol. Pretty decent pay and overtime. Very flexible with PTO/ vacation.

Cons

Reports and timesheets can be overly complicated. Safety policy is very strict, Which is a good thing to work for a company that does their best to make sure you go home to your family every night, But they take safety over any other company goals.
