Pros
Benefits, union, and pay...that’s it.
Cons
Slowly eats your soul. The management is terrible and the fellow employees are manipulative/backstabbing. There is not one professional supervisor in FOM. The whole department is a joke among custodians. Don’t talk to anyone, and stay away from management and you’ll be fine. If drugs or drinking on the job bother you, don’t apply. If you are able to remove your brain from your head for 8 hours, you might be able to make it. If you can stand a gossipy environment where you are constantly having to defend yourself; this could be your new place of employment. The war between first shift and third shift seems like a joke...it’s not. When you choose a first or third shift position, you are really picking the Sharks is the Jets. It’s like walking straight into West Side Story. The pay, benefits, and personal time are amazing. But, is it worth your sanity? Your peace of mind? Three years was enough for me. I thought I found a dream job, but I just stepped into one of the biggest facades the upper valley has to offer.
