Great place to live and work

Engineer

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great place to live, good people to work with. Always have plenty of projects to keep you challenged and busy.

Cons

When the state legislature has final say on salaries and raises, it doesn't take long to fall behind in that area. No raises for four years (and expecting only 1% this year) has made things a little difficult.

I work for Facilities Maintenance at USU and they are great to work with. They work with my school schedule and are helpful to make sure employees know how to complete tasks assigned.

Cons

Changing the area coordinator an employee works under can be difficult. You have to be willing to work with several types of personalities.
