Pros

Decent wage/salary Unionized Fair benefits Good coworkers if they like you (a lot of the senior people can be very cliquey)

Cons

- Shift work. Your health and chance of a normal sleep pattern will suffer - Those on 8 hour shifts wont get their schedule until the week before. Makes planning for anything difficult - Management is disorganized, fixated on little problems but not fixing the bigger issues - Many recent management choices have lowered employee morale substantially
