Pros

Good range of jobs to work on

Cons

Pigeonholed into one role with lack of progression, under staffed, poor remuneration package, mediocre pension package, extremely limited budget towards training, no time allowance for people compiling chartership applications, expectation to work overtime with no remuneration, penny pinching attitude (broken equipment - reluctance to buy new equipment), Q&A with business head all scripted - politician style answers, pay doesn’t keep up with inflation, food and car allowances stagnant despite inflation, I could go on…

Pros

Hired as a "fire-hire," the position is disaster based and 100% travel so you get to travel domestically paid for by the company. When working, pay is good, you can make a lot very quickly with overtime. Being part-time, I can take time-off whenever I want for as long as I want.

Cons

For my position, no natural disasters = no work. Living out of a hotel for months SUCKs and burn-out is real as you could be working 7 days a week, 12 hours a day for months on end. There's no added compensation for taking on an on-site lead position even though the workload triples. As a part-time employee, you have to pay more for benefits when working versus not working. There's a huge disconnect between part-time employees in the field and the full-time employees that do office work and upper management. Part-time workers are not prioritized unless they're willing to do whatever is thrown at them without complaints. The employee turn-over rate in the field is crazy.
