Pros

Very good pay, and benefits Low education requirements Substantial upward mobility

Cons

Management can ruin your career over the slightest issue if they don't like you Dangerous work 8-12 hr shifts, no more no less Until you get seniority, you basically have no consistent working schedule, and are always on call. Hard to make plans

Not a good place to work

Pros

Not a lot fairly decent pay.

Cons

Management has a very strong us versus them mentality towards labor. They will try to fire you for any and everything. Constant cuts and layoffs are the norm so don't expect any real job security. Every new contract is worse than the last, meaning that health insurance costs and copays rise with every contract, while wages remain stagnant.
