Pros

Operates in smaller areas. Easier to get recognized for good work.

Cons

Good work doesn’t necessarily translate into more pay. Always seem to be cutting expenses rather than growing revenue. Lots of management changes.

Pros

Decent benefits. Pay is ok but not great.

Cons

Poor leadership. Efficiency is everything even with poor equipment and tightly controlled staffing. Attitude towards site management is "either you do it or we will find someone else who will." Zero respect.
