Pros

Good pay, good benefits, some people are okay

Cons

12 hours is a very long time, people are not that friendly, and it's a long time to sit by yourself. no breaks and not being able to sit down sucks

Pros

If you want to wear a uniform like you work at McDonald's then this is the job for you. Oh, you're probably better off working at McDonald's. Really!

Cons

Forced to be on call 24/7. What about "The Company with a Soul"? Quad is SOUL LESS. Hippocrates and liars. Shame on you.

Business Outlook

Pros

Generally speaking, the management wants to treat the employees fairly. But, It's dependent on the individual lead or manager as to whether that happens or not. It does offer advancement for those that are willing to work for it. It's an opportunity for people who might not be able to get ahead otherwise because of formal education requirements.

Cons

Quad is trying to grow by acquisition. That means after a new company is acquired and integrated, consolidation will occur. The closures could occur at almost any of the facilities. and because of the volatility of the situation, even long term Quad employee jobs are not safe. The printing industry is probably not a good choice if you have other options.
