Pros

Even time roster Access to standard corporate benefits

Cons

Middle management not interested in site politics. A company that is willing to look the other way when it comes to incidences of WH&S bullying, harassment & discrimination issues, as long as KPI's are met. They harbor poor leaders because of 'mates' status, especially ex-military personnel.
