Pros

(1) Good pay. (2) Great maint dept leadership. (3) Large spare parts room. (4) 2 on 2 off schedule + every other Fri, Sat, Sun. Never work more than 3 days in a row. (5) 44 hr avg work week. (6) Plenty of support. (7) Insurance is getting better year by year. (8) Laid back work environment.

Cons

(1) Crown “not a” benefit - Bonus system is based off metrics out of ur control, most of which ur not going to get. (2) Crown “not a” benefit - “paid holidays” aren’t paid holidays. U get nada unless u work. U get 1.5x, but that day isn’t counted as “time worked” it then takes an extra day to get into ot which means it’s not 1.5x the pay. It’s no different than working a day of overtime. The only benefit is if a “paid holiday” falls on an ot day. (3) Untrained production workers. No real operators which means lots of maint calls for things production should be able to do. (4) Lots of PM’s. (5) Shift dif doesn’t get figured into ot rate.

Pros

Positive reinforcement among coworkers. Great new leadership with efficiant results. Training through hands on work in an enjoyable way.

Cons

Short staff. There was a bit of a big change in maintenance and we are still rebuilding the dept. It is coming along great but we still need a few more good techs to fill the roster.
