Hard work, but a good place to work.

Pros

Good pay, people are rough around the edges but generally friendly, equipment is top of the line, yearly raises are very substantial, flexible hours for part-time workers

Cons

Exposed to all weather - basically the same as working outside, very physically demanding, no formalized support - you have to make your own allies on the dock or figure out how to work entirely alone

Pros

The training they give you is top of the line they leave no stone unturned. They really care about doing the job the right way and keeping the customer happy. In return they reward you accordingly.

Cons

If you can put up with the cold weather being that it's an open dock Then you will be fine. My advice bundle up. Chicago winters are no joke!

hard work, above average pay, facts and figures vary by Terminal location

Dock worker
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Starting pay around $17.50/hr and after a year you'll be up to about $22.50/hr. The dock supervisors are good. Most of them have been in your shoes at one point in our terminal. Best priced benefit package I've seen for health, dental, and other perks that I do not take advantage of.

Cons

If full time you will have 50hr work week in five 10hr days. tough hours, usually graveyard shift for new hires. You're exposed to the elements you'll have no paid time off for the first year and requesting a day off in that time can be like pulling teeth.
