Vantaggi
Pay was decent. Work was challenging. Bonuses are great. Company vehicle was great. Some very nice people that are not in management.
Svantaggi
Insurance benefits suck. Very poor coverage and high deductibles with high premiums. Most managers are worthless as they don't know a thing about managing or even leading a department. People are promoted to those positions based on longevity, good ole boy, or some other behind the door deal. There is very little inside promotion for those proven Expected to work long hours but not rewarded for it. Safety messages were a joke as you get inundated with 3 messages a day about the same crap yet no one wants to do anything about changing the fearful backstabbing culture. Don't even get me starting on the unions. They are the biggest whiners and ungrateful bunch I have ever worked with and managed. The rift between them and management was so unbelievably large that it would take a miracle to change it.
