Pros

I had a great hiring process and the managers that were doing the interview were very friendly. coworkers seem very helpful as well

Cons

8 hour rotating shift work is not too bad. shifting to a 12 hour shift rotation would allow for more time off

Pros

Stable employment. It appears very hard to be fired. You can be incompetent at your job, but as long as you are good at filling out paperwork, you can't be fired.

Cons

They do not reward high achievement. Even if your supervisor recommends you for promotion, the manager/director will simply look at your years of service, without regard to capabilities or achievement.

Pros

Lots of time off and laid back atmosphere. 401k match 100% up to 6%. Lots of room for growth and excellent pay compared to similar positions.

Cons

Cold winters! Not much else to complain about
