Pros

3 vacations a year Decent pay

Cons

Work every major holiday, company is always adding extra work for managers to do. Long days, not a good work/life balance. On call 24 hours a day, will get calls and texts on off days even though your not supposed to. Managers do job of up to 4 people a day.

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
