Not as good as it once was.

Pros

Great Opportunity to learn. Nice office.

Cons

A lot of finger pointing without understanding the full picture. Company has gotten away from investing back into the company, like new equipment upgrade computers, etc. It is more about keeping private equity ownership happy than it is about keeping the employees happy. You could have 200+ hours of PTO and when you leave, you see none of it back. You invest in the company and get none of that investment back.

Pros

Most Positions come with a company truck,

Cons

They say one thing, do another. If you aren't part of the good ol' boy system, you get bypassed on promotions, raises, and bonuses.
