      Great Pay, Terrible company

      Pros

      The benefits and pay were awesome. Co-workers were generally great to get a long with and if you had an "in" with a manager, they were great to get along with too.

      Cons

      TERRIBLE management team. Oftentimes training is done with a peer with no real review from a manager; if you're taught incorrectly then it's your problem when you get in trouble for it. Can't get any real answers from superiors on things regarding your job duties. The field managers are incredibly understaffed and you're expected to work round the clock except for your two weekends off a month (if you even get those).

      Pros

      Good People Part of a Union With Medical And Dental as well as Vision, Pay is Good if you have enough seniority to hold a job or stay on the Extra board

      Cons

      Irregular work hours no set days off unless you can hold a regular job all the old heads are retired so seniority is slow building

      Pros

      Great job with excellent pay and benefits. No experience or education and I make more than any of my friends that have a degree. Work outside and get to travel.

      Cons

      Paying over a hundred dollars a month for some guy who don't even work to make six figures a year to "run" the union. Oh, and they mail you your contract the company offers as well. The coworkers are the worst. I have been here for 6 years and people cry constantly. You have guys that abuse FMLA so a guy can never take his time off but will cry like hell the second they get ran around. My biggest disgust was the ingrate people that shouldn't even have the job boxing the whole craft into a corner and voting down an offer for $42.50 an hour, days off, and furlough protection just because they don't like management. Yet not a single nay sayer has the guts to step up and be management! I have never worked with such idiotic and ungrateful people.
