Pros

Must be willing to work shift work, rotating. Over time last year was about 30% of total income. No mandatory overtime. Great benefits, 401k, Union, and Defined pension.

Cons

SHIFTWORK! Rotating shifts can be rough but if you work at a plant with 12 hour shifts you only work 14 days out of the month. Schedule is set up to provide 7 days off in a row each month.
