Avantages
No pros. They prey on fresh college graduates, and put them in a field they have no business being in. This is basically a glorified construction job where they give you benefits. I guess the only pro is you do get benefits but that’s about it. You could slightly call it a resume builder but it’s not. The “skills” you learn here don’t help you unless you want to be a professional concrete tester. Your own peers and 2 of the supervisors are the only pros but you will never see them, you will always be on site.
Inconvénients
-no support from supervisors -required to use personal vehicle -mile reimbursement is .50 cents per mile- .20 cents below the current rate -salary is 19.48 an hour -expected to work overtime, weekends, overnight -understaffed (intentionally to keep cost down) -poor training -work with antiquated testing methods (nuclear) -98% on site -encouraged (coerced) to use PTO on rainy days or quasi holidays -physical strain -once again- personal vehicle (this is NOT industry standard) -no career growth -deter people from moving up -NOT A SCIENCE ROLE!!!!!!
