Pros

Comraderie with fellow managers, almost always willing to help other department when workload exceeds expectations. Noticed a turn around before leaving, outside consultants are changing the culture as well as the new operations manager

Cons

Very low hourly wage for mgmt Absolutely no job security - can be fired on a whim The higher up you go the more exposure you have - resulting in more vulnerability Almost never enough money for staffing John Menard is the only executive who gets paid like one

Friendly place of work. Decent pay once in management. Flexible schedule. Bonuses.

No real incentives other than promoting into a role where you will be stretched too thin, under-appreciated and stuck with lacking leadership.
