Business outlook
Pros
Fast-paced environment (never bored). Job security. Advancement from within. Challenging, rewarding work. Good, committed people. Pride in knowing that you work for a fortune 50 company, and help play an essential part in daily world commerce. Non-traditional work environment (ie no cubicle).
Cons
Very demanding work, physically and mentally. 24 hour operation equals lots of long days and nights (avg workday at least 12 hours). No guarantee of advancement through the years (limited openings). Decent salary, but when I do the math to find out hourly rate, I cringe. Vacations are not very flexible. Holiday peak season-you might as well just live at the office for the month of December.
