Pros

The benefits and hours are ok

Cons

I have never worked in such a toxic environment. Managers publicly applaud themselves on being empowering, etc. but were the most unprofessional horrible people I have ever encountered and HR is useless. This is the status quo here. Horrible people patting themselves on the back for a job terribly done. This company operates like a chicken with its head cut off. I literally needed therapy from working for this company. If you can, work literally anywhere else

Pros

Union job, you aren’t forced to work here, arbitrators aren’t in the companies pocket like the H.R. dept is. I am no longer on Anti-depressants since I no longer work here.

Cons

No work life balance, first level and 2nd level managers can create hostile work environments where over 70% of the local work force quits or is fired in a 2 year period, and absolutely nothing is changed. Total flat out lies in the interview process once your an employee if what was said in the interview is now your word against there’s. Calls to H.R. (including head of the Human Resources Dept) would go unresolved and a copy and paste reply would be sent to anyone who would contact the H.R. dept about the hostile work environment.
