      Pros

      Flexible schedule,good par-time on call job.Bright future if deep changes have been applied quickly.

      Cons

      No decent wage for labors who spent many years in the production department.Many Foreman are creating a hostile work environment.Most of them should retire First, because they do not have the proper managerial education skills.Second,they do not really ad any value anymore to our final product.A machine can be run by a competent experienced Mailer or even Utility Mailer. With out exaggeration most of them their value to the company now is obsolete.The company talks about minimizing the production cost.Can you imagine one machine is running by 5 to 4 foreman plus at least 5 crew members !!!

      It's a new world

      Pros

      The Post is working hard to be a leader in the new world of media.

      Cons

      The best jobs are working on the cutting edge of media, and in the news room. Roles that support the news room (advertising, production) are not high-profile with C-level executives.
