Pros

Plenty of overtime. Union based pay. Easily move up inside of company. Great insurance. Tools and training provided. Safety oriented. Always learning

Cons

Can be a lot of mandatory overtime. No life work balance all work 70+ hours weekly. Paid every two weeks. Hard to get employed. To many safety rules. Management seems to cause friction between employees. Management believes they are smarter than employees that do the work and believe they are some type of royalty. 99% are complete idiots that have no understanding of operations and cause so many more problems than they help with. Their were a few good supervisors and managers but most had absolutely no business being in charge of very capable technicians. They make the work environment very hostile just to stroke their own pitful egos. Way to many supervisors and managers. One technician working while 5-8 managers watching.
