    Consider a different place to work. This place is a joke.
    The good thingsThe Technicians are awesome and the Clients are great.
    The challengesNo employee development. Constant pay cuts. The company produces a Bad Morel from management. Poor communication between management and Technicians. Project managers are constantly double dipping clients and technicians to make profits and bonuses.
