Pros

Stable job, decent wages, nice people, good location, many trades you can learn if you know the right people.

Cons

The air quality isn't the best because of the material you deal with. Shifts change a lot. Jobs in the yard can change. A lot of things can mysteriously disappear if you don't watch your things.
