Pros

They'll hire nearly anybody but if you pay attention and stay focused you can learn a lot about utilities. It's a good way to get your foot in the door for utility work. All you can eat overtime during the summer. You can make good money in the summer but it's mostly due to working 70-80 hrs/week for months on end.

Cons

Far too much overtime required most of the year, then "partial employment" during the winter. Unrealistic expectations about quality vs. quantity of work.

Pros

The nice thing about working as a Utility Locator is that you can work independently. I used to start working at about 6am, and would stop working in the late afternoon.

Cons

Most locators are required to be on call for a week around once a month. The on call work can be brutal at times. When on call at night, you are still required to cover your daytime shifts. If you are in a busy area, this might mean working 16 to 18 hours in a row, with only a few hours of sleep before covering your normal shift the next morning.
