Pros

Great pay and chances to get pay increases...nice bonuses checks every three months

Cons

Last minute notices about working overtime is a daily habit! Scheduled overtime every week leaves workers with no personal time Leadworkers don't work, just stand around and delegate work to same employees Safety meetings and paperwork every week is redundant!!
