Pros

Money, breaks, hours. 7-4 is an awesome shift beats traffic

Cons

The personal can be rugged at times or can be completely nice or mixed. Problem is the rugged tend to change the good to be lazy and angry. Your coworkers could potentially suck especially since you tend to share vehicles from time to time.

Long term staff have never worked anywhere else and have an attitude of expectation Need to upskill managers in modern practices that are not engineering bias to understand best practice
