Pros

If not union then you'll be on call. They don't care if you're late and if you don't go for 4 months straight

Cons

Hard to become apart of the union

Nonexistent work schedule. Poor work/life balance.

Business Outlook

Pros

The benefits are %100 paid for.

Cons

Some of the lowest pay for the most time spent. $1200 a week might sound like a good deal but when you have to work about 70 hours a week just to achieve it you might start questioning if you should find better opportunities elsewhere.
