Pros

The guys I work with make the job worth doing. You get a lot of training. Company pays for the tools and equipment you need for the job.

Cons

Not a lot of time to do the training that is required of you. Pay is not great. It's hard to get 40 hours in a week unless emergencies happen. Hours are only good if your willing to travel and be away from your family for days or weeks at a time. Manager seems to stab people in the back a lot to keep himself from looking bad.

Pros

Plenty of hours between 75 to 80 hours a week minimum. Good place to get experience as a stepping stone.

Cons

You're always on call it is mandatory that you work three weekends a month both Saturday and Sunday including the 5-day work weeks Monday through Friday Technician. As a coordinator you work 6 day work weeks Sunday through Friday you only get Saturdays off it's a salary based position so you get no compensation if you work over 8 hours a day as a coordinator and you will work more than 8 hours a day your minimum will be 12 to 14 hours a day up to a maximum of 18 hours a day regularly.
