Pros

Good pay and benefits. Strong local management. New CEO. Strong resources to make life productive and easier.

Cons

Lots of hoops to jump through to get things done. HVAC service at branch level is not what it should be. Finding what you need from the 100's off Apps the company uses can be challenging.
