Pros

People at a direct management position, or below genuinely care. They fight for what they can get, but schedule and budget dictate everything.

Cons

PM and above don't seem to care at all. As soon as a project goes south(even if it was underbid) prepare to be blamed for everything all while being told that the best technicians "learn in the field." I get that there's some self learning portion, but most employees go 2 years before their first training class if they get one at all.

Pros

Great company and coworkers. People are very nice and friendly and the CEC is a nice place to work and the role has flexible hours.

Cons

There is a lot of work to be done so there's a lot of stress that comes with the role. There are times where you will have to work over 40 hours a week. Seems like work-life balance is not prioritized.
