Pros
In this position, you set your own schedule based on PMs, upgrades, and other tasks that are shared with Field Engineers.
Great benefits- Car, cell phone, computer, travel points, excellent and inexpensive health/dental and great 401k match
Great people to work with
Lots of tools, documents, training at your disposal to get the job done
Kontras
Lots of driving (10-15 hours average) and 3-4 nights a week in a hotel (Though this could also be a pro if you love travel)
Some labs can be dirty, crowded, cramped and can be difficult scheduling with customers if they want you at an odd time.
