Pros

Good benefits, strong union, nearly impossible to get fired

Cons

Your superiors will do anything to make some extra coin, including stalling your promotion for MONTHS at a time while you are filling the role of the promotion, taking money from your department bonus to buy new things for the store, making you do extra work outside of your job description so they don't have to use as many man hours, stealing hours from your department and using them elsewhere. No sick leave, if you get sick you don't get paid, which means that everyone still comes to work when they are sick and tries to hide it, thusly getting EVERYONE ELSE sick including customers.
