Pros

If you enjoy being overworked, underpaid, and belittled by your supervisors it’s great.

Cons

You are overworked, underpaid, and the company will argue with your union and tell you that a 2% raise over the next 3 years is fair. You get treated like trash, if you or your family gets sick they will write you up because of it, and if you call in you are questioned by supervisors regardless of the reason. The work like balance is 80% at work and maybe 20% at home once you certify. Double turns, turn doubles, and double doubles happen weekly. Expect 7 shifts in 5 days regularly. Absolutely no chance for upwards movement in the company period.
