Vantaggi
-My coworkers are some of the best people I've ever met (only at the bottom rungs though) -Lots of quick learning -Some shifts offer meals -Develop relationships with the food vendors and feel more connected to my community as result -Lots of overtime -Blossoming industry with many genuinely good innovations -Lots of very beautiful locations you will work
Svantaggi
-Safety is not their priority, minimal training occurs -Some of the shifts are grueling in unnecessary ways that they refuse to change. -Minimal-to-no transparency between departments and management, I've seen a number of people's hours cut on a days notice with false explanations (If they want to fire you, they will find a way to do so) -Overwhelming class/gender/ability gap between the people who do hard labor and those that work in the offices or in the field (sans labor) -No genuine effort to improve the conditions of the production employees without it coming from begging -Similar to Amazon in their ability and willingness to have awful turnover and burnout their employees -Very poor planning between departments, we are usually left in the dark and then end up working 20 hour shifts (Yes, this actually happened a number of times) because of last minute plans or procrastination -There is a very direct tie between incompetency in the office and safety in the field. I and a number of my coworkers received permanent injuries because of bad ideas from top management (CEO, COO, Ops). -If you do not feel safe doing something, you will end up getting in trouble one way or another for voicing that concern. -You will not get a raise unless you ask, and even then you will probably be told no. -Their HR department is there to fight against your rights, not for your rights. Or at least this is their end result.
