      Pros

      Good pay. Good benefits. Opportunity for advancement. Better self guided learning tools. Doing more to improve work life balance, especially for the salaried employees. They keep investing, expanding and innovating.

      Cons

      Hourly: Generations of apathetic union attitude. Seniority is everything. There is little if any accountability for sub par performance. Union protects deadbeats. Doesn't do much to actually help it's own future. Salary: There are a few systems level, organizational shortfalls. They tie up a lot of resources.
