Pros

Open enrollment into "the club" the sooner you get into it the better.

Cons

Management wants you to take ownership of an area, which could be a good thing, but more often than not it is so they can chill for 7/9 hours of a shift while sitting on their phone while preparing to question your decisions with 20/20 hindsight during wrap up.

Pros

Flexible, good pay, good management

Cons

Working in the elements. Sometimes not knowing when you will get off work but usually pretty consistent.
