Pros

Never know if you will get to work at your own plant or work at all when things get slow. Never know when layoffs will happen and if you will have your job still at the end of the day. They like to keep felons, military people, pedophiles, people with disabilities all because they get a tax break for people like that. I have seen great workers with great attendance and performance get laid off before people with poor attendance and bad work ethic all because they get a tax break on that person. Poor management doesn't listen to your ideas. Won't pay you your vacation if you quit or get fired or laid off. Stay away if you value job security

Cons

Did I mention no breaks unless you're a jogger?
