Pros

USED to be the pay was the only good thing about this job but that's not even true anymore with the new contract-WAY to low for how hard you work

Cons

Have to pay $100 in union dues EVERY MONTH just to be able to work there and the union will tell you to your face that they do NOT do anything to help supplemental employees! NO job security-NO insurance-NO vacation-NO profit sharing-NO personal/sick-NO raises-NO RESPECT but all the while working next to core employees that get ALL of the above and rubbing your face in it.......they get all the benefits and thousands in profit sharing checks even though you work 3 times harder plus supplementals can't work more than 7 months out of a year than they lay you off for 4 months, if you like working your ass off for a company that will chew you up and spit you out, replacing you tomorrow than this job is for you
