Pros

The pay rate is good considering no experience is required. Overtime is plentiful for those who want the hours. Very easy to get a job here even for nonviolent felons.

Cons

The hours are long and the expectations are extreme. Schedules aren't set in stone and can change within a 24 hour window. 50+ hour workweeks for months at a time become overbearing and have lead to labor shortages. Labor shortages have led to overworking small groups of loyal employees. Logistics is handled by unqualified individuals. Management loses their tempers easily and act unprofessional.

Thank you for your input! Sparton schedules are 10 hour work days Monday-Thursday with the occasional overtime Friday scheduled as needed (paid at time plus one half). We're also now paying $16/hour to start!

Thanks for your input! You didn't mention that 2nd shift employees are eligible for a $2/hour pay differential! This means you start at $16.00 and make $18/hour for working 2nd shift!
