Pros

Lots of training, safety is a priority the work environment is better than most printing industrial sites. Decent parts and informational support. Much better than most. 12 hour shifts rotate days to nights every four months, front half of the week to the back every 8 weeks. So you get either a seven on or seven off every 8 weeks. Vacation is additional time off.

Cons

Pay is not where it should be which is draining talented workers from the company. Quad Graphics has always been known as Quad University where you go to learn the trade and then go work somewhere else that pays a living wage. Sadly it's true.

Pros

The people you work with are awesome best people I have worked with at a job. Willing to help you until you fully know what you're doing.

Cons

It is hot as hell. You must wear steel toe boots which means your feet will be dead after every shift. If you don't need full timw benifits I strongly suggest part time work because yes it's 3 on 4 off and 4 on 3 off but mind you you'll spend a day recovering from the shift you just had. Also 2 20 minute breaks(really 5-10 with walking and such) is absolute garbage specially on a hot day. There were times when I had felt I was going to pass out while working from lack of water and air. Change your ways no need for 12 hour shifts at a factory job
