apprentice electrician

Southland-Electric

Southland is a great company for anyone trying to excel in the electrical business. Southland is a large company spanning three states and is very reputable among other electrical companies. Southland has a lot of employees, but not as much as other much larger corporate companies, so if you like working directly with the owner and experienced journeymen and master electricians then this is the job for you. This job is not for the faint of heart. Overall a great learning experience for apprentices, they will load a lot of the work onto you especially. They will work you like a $2 wh***.

A typical day would be to meet at shop in am, get assignments for that day. I rode with another guy that at the time drove on eof their trucks. we would spend the day out and about completing our assigned tasks.
I learned a lot at this company because its where I started out and at the time didn't know anything about electrical.
hardest part of the job would be getting in attics and the pay was not that great but then again just starting.
most enjoyable part was the fact that we rode around a lot in the truck.

Reviewed projects with manager, assisted in estimating, ordering materials, updating client drawings, downloading and providing test results, site walks, project meetings. 
I became more familiar with testing equipment.
The company treats everyone like family, great work environment.
no hard part to working there. enjoyed all aspects, great communication, regular meetings and crew training.

Great place to work and stay busy. Quality workmanship and friendly coworkers. Work on all aspects of the trade, commercial, residential and underground.

Working for this company is like working for your parents. They are so welcoming, understanding, fair, and generous. If you have the opportunity to EVER work for this company... STAY!!!!

Lots of learning experience here because it was the first company I worked for in the trade while going to school at the same time to obtain nationwide certification in electrical wiring.

You have a lot of responsibility and are required to do the take off and order all materials and install from start to finish a craftsman like job and walk-thru with city and state inspectors.

As a high schooler, the job was great. It was excellent pay with a lot of concurrent hours. Although it is a hard job, it is a great learning experience or summer job for those interested

Lots of money to be made here. Always worked never a shortage of work. They do all the sdge work for substations and poles . It was a good experience it’s hard to advance here
