Pros

Was reasonable money but starting to be quite uncompetitive. Shift workers lose out as salary isnt proportional compared to day workers or other comparable businesses at around 20% less. Exposure to interesting and varied work and lots of overtime (due to being severely understaffed).

Cons

Toxic culture from management, one way communication with only token consultation with employees occuring despite being told we were one team. Pressure jobs will see you followed around and stood over by managers to get the job done "faster". I guess that might work in South Africa but not in Australia lol. Try again. Employees in my old section leaving in droves , over 30%(and good people)left just in the last year. No training unless they have to (compliance training for legal reasons) Saddened and pretty disgusted at how a great site has been run down and employee trust and loyalty thrown away.
