Pros

Great company. They train you on every aspect of the job. They always treated their people right. Diverse environment allows for idea creation.

Cons

Sometimes long hours. Training at times could have been better. Some MITs had better training managers than others. I was forced to learn on my own at times.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback. A trainee has three reports to help him/her progress in the knowledge of CED and the electrical industry: the PC Manager, Division Manager and the Training Manager. We've added an additional training manager to make the territories smaller and spend more time with the trainee in his/her respective territories. However, we do advise trainees that it's the manager's job to make resources and training tools available to the trainee; we cannot force anyone to take advantage of those resources. We encourage trainees to take charge of their individual career and take advantage of everything we offer.

Pros

Very nice coworkers and you get to travel a good amount in your first year. Guided training process wasn’t bad

Cons

Low pay and long hours. The contract they’ll have you sign in misleading on salary. You’re basically going to be a hourly employee your first 2/3 years and more likely than not are not going to be making the amount on the contract unless you do a lot of overtime. There is a lot of corporate pressure on being able to move wherever they tell you to also. My best advice is to look at what your local managers lives are like and consider if they’re happy or not. You have to have a certain amount of being a loner in you to be ok with their outlandish moving expectations.
