Pros

Very good starting pay ($12/hour) and lots of overtime Decent insurance after 90 days Very respectful co-workers Chance to take financial and other courses on-the-clock!!

Cons

Very physical; we work on cement floors all day with no padding Days can reach 12 hours in December Less than 8-hour days in January and February (makes budgeting difficult) Management expects "yes sir" or "yes ma'am"; some team leaders are very strict regarding talking to other workers Very strict attendance policy. Regardless of the circumstance, we are disciplined if we miss a day of work (even when in the hospital!!) Must have either personal time or vacation accrued to avoid discipline.
