Pros

Job security is very high

Cons

The pay rates are God awful MICRO MANAGEMENT BEYOND BELIEF Terrible pay raises. Average is 2.5% hourly rate. This year is only going to be 1% to pretty ,Uchiha everyone. However, management is well taken care of. Various OSHA regulation violations Hostile work environment Terrible hiring process (pretty much just have to apply) Short training period Management never leads by example Favoritism is huge here Management takes credit for others work and problem solving with zero recognition of employee that shares their knowledge. Starting pay is well below entry level averages Hires individuals with zero knowledge or experience and in one case learning disabled (not that it is a problem, unless they drive a company issued vehicle) Very little room for advancement

Pros

Great work/life balance, reliable teamwork and support from management, opportunities for growth and exposure to new skills.

Cons

Coaching/overseeing a team in itself has a set of cons, which is what I primarily handle on a daily basis. This comes with any job, but you will have people on your team who need to improve on things such as lack of communication, lack of effort, no work ethic, and lack of skills. Motivating them can be difficult at times, and then you always seem to have a few who do things to avoid work. An accumulation of all these factors subsequently creates more, unnecessary, and redundant work for us. These types of people tend to eliminate themselves out over time due to poor performance and/or quit.
