Good group to work around with good teamwork
Day Lead (Current Employee), Rockport, IN –
Pros: flexible with work schedule if needed
Cons: health care
Typical day is to come in, have safety meeting, distribute work to techs, work on the next days work schedule, plan the work, meet with contractors, order any parts that are needed, and work with other managers to go over safety issues and work with production.

The hardest part of my job is to schedule crane for their PM' due to the crane service more – more...  than one area and not all areas go down for maintenance at the same time

The most enjoyable part of my job is to see the tech being sucessful with their work and seeing the take pride in a job well done. – less

Small company
Awards Coordinator (Customer Service) (Former Employee), Belleville, IL –
Small company that lacks innovative ideas. Compared to one of it's main competitors Allsup Inc, it has grown slowly because of the lack of technology.

Excellent experience
Centennial, CO (Former Employee), Mechanical Engineer –
Pros: numerous in-office and field opportunities, solid work-life balance, good compensation and benefits
Cons: success driven by current political climate
Great experience for engineers interested in the power industry.
Only downside is the cyclical nature of the industry itself.
