Pros

SGS Testcom manages the applications and the systems that manage the state vehicle smog program. They manage the system the best that they can based on funding and staff talent. There are a few talented people below the manager rank that are adding value to this project.

Cons

The working environment is deplorable, old out of date buildings with poor facilities (see other reviews). Computer systems and databases are on the verge of serious failure due to poor management. The headquarters in Balston Spa NY, contains the executive staff. The executives treat their managers poorly, not providing raises to reward good performance in 2 years. Relationships with the State of California (the customer) are often poor.

Pros

There is an ok starting pay. Entry level "lab" work

Cons

long work hours, 50+ required a week. On your feet all day in one spot. Lots of janitorial work. Long time investment of doing the dirty work before promotion.
