Pros

The company is very efficient in what they are good at: making equipment surrounding residential AC systems The business model is conservative, but for good reason

Cons

Was recently acquired by a much much bigger private firm and then went public in 2026. One more layer of scrutiny when comes down to project spending approval process. The long term effect of the take-over is still remained to be seen.

Pros

If you get on a good line with a good team you can raise your average pay quickly.

Cons

Some lines are almost impossible to make rate on which can lower your average in a hurry. If they are having supply issues and can't get parts you're going to be stuck working at average doing menial tasks like cleaning. Hopefully you have a good average. You're really at the mercy of what line you're assigned to (or even trained on) and who you're working with.
