Pros

Not to many. Trucks were nice. Office was always air conditioned, coffee was readily available and always hot.

Cons

Long days, frequently worked 2am to 5pm or later. Long weeks, 70+ hours, including Saturday and Sundays. The department managers were a joke, only cared about their departments "charge ability". Pray that it doesn't rain, or you might as well pick up pennies in the parking lot to make a living. No room for advancement, "raises" were laughable. Columbia office was pathetic, watched 15 people get hired and quit within the course of a year.

Pros

Work/life balance Career advancement training opportunities

Cons

Toxic top-down management culture. Environmental employees are expendable. If you aren’t an engineer, good luck. Management does not care to get to know their employees and favoritism is the norm, not the exception. Unrealistic expectations from new hires. Low compensation for industry standards.
