Pros

Flexible scheduling is great. Offices typically operate on their own standards in a day-to-day sense, not company-wide policies for dress or schedules. Partial 401k match with a good bank. It's a big company so you can always move offices to advance, so there's some benefit to that. Big company with a lot of long-standing relationships, typically TT offices are very stable.

Kontras

Time off policy is garbage. You accrue PTO based on the billable hours to have at a set rate, so your timecard every week shows how many hours of PTO you have. However, TT actually stores your PTO in cash value, which changes the hours of vacation you have accrued. In other words, if you get a 10% raise, you will also lose 10% of the PTO you have accrued. They have also snuck in an additional "mandatory holiday" without increasing the PTO generation rate, so employees effectively lose a day of their vacation time. Often TT does not recognize or reward good work - there is no such thing as a retention budget. Not much stock is put in junior staff. Not much of a belief of overall wellness or work/life balance.

Pros

Hired as a "fire-hire," the position is disaster based and 100% travel so you get to travel domestically paid for by the company. When working, pay is good, you can make a lot very quickly with overtime. Being part-time, I can take time-off whenever I want for as long as I want.

Kontras

For my position, no natural disasters = no work. Living out of a hotel for months SUCKs and burn-out is real as you could be working 7 days a week, 12 hours a day for months on end. There's no added compensation for taking on an on-site lead position even though the workload triples. As a part-time employee, you have to pay more for benefits when working versus not working. There's a huge disconnect between part-time employees in the field and the full-time employees that do office work and upper management. Part-time workers are not prioritized unless they're willing to do whatever is thrown at them without complaints. The employee turn-over rate in the field is crazy.
