Pros

Very secure job. Almost impossible to get fired from. Plenty of paid overtime available. Personal leave hours can roll over year to year. Hands on experience, working directly with mechanics and technicians. Industrial environment, with a pretty big "cool" factor.

Cons

Not very challenging. Most of the management is unqualified. Very strict working hours. Generally pays less than industry. Career advancement (promotions) lead you very quickly up to management level.
