Pros

Small, family-owned company. Relative freedom as a laser tech. Wear scrubs to work. Drive a laser van and push a heavy laser around hospitals.

Cons

Terrible pay. Zero advancement opportunities. Salespeople know less about the lasers and procedures than the techs, but are paid much better. Long, boring days either waiting for hospitals to catch up, or driving to BFE.

Jobs at ForTec are busy and people work hard, but support is widely available. Some roles require great flexibility with hours. Independence in completing job duties is needed. This can be a pro or con for you.
