Pros

Weekly paychecks. Medical benefits are good.

Cons

I had benefits still owed to me (I've retired). They've locked me out of my email so I can't find the documentation I need and then rationalize why they shouldn't pay me. Equipment isn't maintained to DOT standards and other employees are more interested in the money in their pocket vs their safety. Folks, they handle Hazmat and yet the equipment is marginal.
