Pros

All I can say here was it was great pay.

Cons

Where do I begin with this one. You are home very little, they will refuse to train you for better jobs, management was too worried about setting the stage for their reign of terror. You have an overall team manager who care very little about the day to day operation's opting to instead lean on two guys who carry their feeling on the shoulders and just find ways to terminate people they don't like. When I was moving to a new area I called and asked if they were ok with it prior to ever putting my house on market. I had my manger tell me he was ok with it as long as I made my jobs and did what I was expected to do. He pushed it up to HR and they had no documents governing moves and distance to airport. So I put my house on the market and sold it pretty quick. I then got a call from the overall team manager and was told he needed to “think” about it all. Exactly a month and a half later, and once I completed the move I was fired for “moving to far from an airport”. My suggestion to anyone considering this company… don't they are more worried about tearing themselves apart then making money.
