      Great company if you are in the right location (management wise).

      Pros

      Great benefits. Good opportunity for advancement if you are willing to lead the right way. Strong company vision is shared from top down. High wages compared to the competition, but a lot more is expected as well. Safety culture is very strong.

      Cons

      Too much disparity between leadership from region to region. In the South (TX, OK, AR,) upper management is comitted to open communication, training, employee first management, and was still able to deliver company financial goals. In other areas management governs with an iron fist, zero tolerance, and fear. The latter being very disappointing when one has been party to the former.

      Pros

      Lots of freedom, company truck, get paid for the work, you get out of it what you put in.

      Cons

      Management from above & will never see them lead by example. No HR presence at all, so superiors get away with whatever they want and use scare tactics. Have slesforce.com but they have no clue how to use it properly in such a fast pace environment. Don't expect a happy work environment. Were so far behind the curve in technology they bought out their largest competitor because they had no clue how to catch up.
