Svantaggi
Scheduling Managers do not help out the worker. They need to fill their quotas and that's it. Very hard (all but impossible) to get your PTO request accepted Shift schedules are mandated by the "BID". A bi-annual bid for shifts based on seniority. plenty of people have been in the division for years and never want to retire. If you area new hire just count on working possibly for a full year on your 20th choice for a schedule-- all the other shifts will be taken by the time you get a chance to throw your pick into it.
