Pros

Doing something different everyday. Can make decent money but you'll be working 70+ hours per week.

Cons

Crappy equipment. Not enough money for what you're doing. No set schedule. Different start times everyday. Lies about raises. Out of town travel. On call frequently. Work so many hours that you dont have enough time for a life. They have no cares for dot hours of service.

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.
