Pros

-Really good pay -Not a lot of micro managing, pretty self determined -Good company values

Cons

-Some micro managing, not from on-site management, but from corporate leadership that has made certain promises to customers -Depending on area, work life balance is not great. Need to be available 24/7, including call-ins in the middle of the night. Work load is a bit much but the pay matches that so you're not putting a ton of hours for nothing.

Pros

Business outlook is solid and benefits aren't bad.

Cons

Even if you exceed expectations and outperform your peers, you still only get paid based on the amount of work you do, not how well you do it or if you take initiative to do more than your "title" suggests.
