Pros

Co-workers throughout the years have been awesome. It can be a very comfortable place to be, with a just-enough wage and just easy enough workload you don't realize how long you've been there.

Cons

Management dictates, and they do it absolutely and, in many cases, especially coming from the Main Office, they do it without regards to physical labor. Because they are so far removed from the _doing_ of things, it can be frustrating to execute their will.

Pros

Job can be fun and interesting Always something new to learn Lots of personal fulfillment as a manager when things go right

Cons

Unsupportive upper management Toxic work culture, unpaid overtime is rewarded and even expected or forced, even to the tune of multiple weeks in a row with no days off when you are salaried. They claim to support work life balance but even the smallest effort to set boundaries is heavily punished. Not paid as much as we should be for everything we have to do and deal with
