This company takes advantage of their employees in a huge way. You’re asked to take your car all over the country, and are not provided ANY assistance if it breaks down with a flat tire or any other issue. My car needed a $2,000 repair, due to hunting for telephone poles on a dirt road, after repeatedly requesting not to be sent to off-road poles, and I received $0 of help. I was laid off after nearly three years of very loyal service. I went the extra mile many many times for these people. Driving 12+ hours during Christmas, going to jobs way after business hours because my boss told me it was urgent, implementing new systems to bring in new work, training an entire team on how to perform the system that I implemented, etc. 

To the best of my knowledge I was laid off because I made more money than the people below me. There are still employees there who I trained, and who I am positive I provided a higher quality/quantity of work than. I was never provided a reason other than “lack of work” but all of the new employees/entry level (low $) employees are still present. It’s been like this for years. With three years of experience I was one of the longest tenured employees on my team.

You’re a contract worker, and they exploit that heavily. Stay away

Every day I make sure I complete the task that I givin to accomplish, I learned about what the name of all of the things I deal with that I work with . Now a manager is something that I'm trying to be because I know everything I need to know about installing a fiber termination box. Work place culture I believe I do the job correctly. The hardest thing is when I'm digging and the spot that Sprayed so I'll know to watch for wire and it's a wire in that area once you start digging so I have to dig around the area and place the box there but placed to a different side put still in that area. Tha most enjoyable part of the day is when I go on a lunch break after working hard for a few hours 



Leadership—once composed of approachable and visionary founders—was replaced by executives whose primary focus seems to be maximizing profits and satisfying shareholders. 
The innovative mindset that once defined this company has been replaced by endless meetings, dominated by excessive PowerPoint slides, KPIs, and flowcharts. Creativity has taken a back seat to efficiency, with employees now encouraged to “optimize” rather than innovate.
Meanwhile, more C-suite positions are being filled by individuals with little to no knowledge of the business, focused primarily on enforcing accountability, while frontline managers and their teams are expected to deliver results immediately. The culture has become a textbook example of bureaucracy and profit-driven decision-making, leaving employees feeling like cogs in a machine rather than valued contributors

They recruit you and tell you the position is remote and work out of your home office and out in the field. Once hired they totally reneg and demand your in office every day for 8 hours (despite the face you live 3 hours from said office) then they expect you to drive five hours to be in market work for three hours and drive five hours back. Total lack of work life balance nor do they care. Nothing of what I was told during the interview process and signing the offer letter was true. They are a very misleading organization, that lacks trust of the people they hire, no work life balance nor do they care. I would strongly recommend against this company, unless you enjoy working 60 hours, but like getting 40 hours of pay.

Arrive at the shop and wait 30 minutes to an hour for daily jobs rushed to finish jobs that management decided to put off till last minute they change company policy and or lie about company policy to make themselves look good when an incident occurs while other employees get away with whatever they want because of being suck ups also people who are better picks for promotions to be management get over looked by people that have no idea of what they are doing after they have sucked their way into other positions that they had no business doing because of lack of knowledge and ability to do so, they say loyalty is key but they are no loyal

What is the best part of working at the company?
Traveling to different job location, meeting different kind of people. Company really cares for the employees. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
When there is no reception when working in rural location. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work life balance, effective positive culture

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Waking up early in morning. Getting job locations map out. Arriving to job location, and getting job completed on to the next.

What is the best part of working at the company?
A degree of freedom.          

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Have to work with limited tools, materials, and information.  Having to do your superior work on top of your own work.  Too many people in positions that manage than people who are competent to do the work. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Unnecessarily stressful.  Fractured management structure. Very much a kiss the ring environment. Everyone is out for them selves. Favoritism is blatant and obvious.

Funded by private equity and formed through rapid acquisition, 4 years later and they are still struggling to organize at a corporate and operational level. A coherent business and operational strategy eludes leadership as they continue to promote adding more layers of  senior management that fail to move the needle. The pay you came with is the pay you will keep. Rewarding individuals who exceed revenue targets has been replaced with celebrating mediocrity and excuses of industry downturn.

The only enjoyable part working for the Ontario, Ca yard was the 4/10 schedule. After the work week we endured there, 3 days off was definitely much needed. Upper management was a total joke. They do not care about the well being nor the safety of their employees. 

Typical day would be waiting on the foreman to decide what we were going to do for that day. Culture ain’t to bad until it falls apart and everyone starts pointing fingers. Nothing hard about the job.

Don’t be the employee that shows up everyday wondering if your coworkers are gonna show up or not.

Certain people are protected by the managers.
