Pros

One of the few jobs which give salaried employees overtime. Sometimes flex time is also given. Ability to work 4 10 hour days for a work week.

Cons

No real engineering takes place; only what someone else has written in a manual. Everything is outdated and pay is not great.

Pros

If you're under 30, the pay can be pretty decent starting out. Pay and benefits start when you start training. If you like downtime, there's plenty.

Cons

The leadership is incredibly dysfunctional and everything is behind schedule. The environment is literally toxic and you will not get a respirator, just an N95 mask. Management is understaffed and unsupported. There's a lack of seasoned experienced employees, which means the young people coming in aren't being trained or mentored properly. You might have a 19 year old kid doing stupid and dangerous stuff right next to you and there's no supervision. Sick and vacation time is so small that running out of hours is the #1 way to get fired.
