Pros

Pays the bills but is not as competitive as other jobs with better hours, rest days, and insurance

Cons

Childish rules, arbitrary discipline standards, upper management throws temper tantrums, lack of tools and supplies on sight, safety first until it gets in the way of production. Job security, job satisfaction, job training, outdated prints, outdated technical resources, un realistic job accountability time tables. I’m trained upper and middle management. Total lack of confusion and no clue on how to correct course.
