FieldCore

Pros: As a Field Service Engineer, I've found that if you're good and reliable, there's usually another project waiting. For power generation roles, the demand for skilled field personnel seems pretty steady. They do a decent job of trying to keep folks utilized between assignments.
Cons: Job security can feel a bit up and down for field operations, especially if project starts get delayed. It's not a steady 9-to-5 corporate gig, so you're always a little mindful of the next contract. You can't always count on continuous work if a big contract ends without a new one lined up right away.
Advice to Management: Try to communicate more clearly about future project pipelines to help manage expectations around job continuity for field staff. Investing in more cross-training could also help with utilization during slower periods.

Pros: The base salary for a Field Service Engineer is pretty competitive, especially considering it's a remote position. Health insurance and 401k are solid. It's stable work in the power generation industry.
Cons: Annual bonuses have definitely shrunk in recent years; it's disappointing. Raises are small, sometimes barely covering cost of living increases. I wish there was more transparency on how compensation is structured.
Advice to Management: Revisit the annual bonus structure and make sure raises truly reflect employee contributions and current market rates. Transparency around compensation would help a lot.
