Pros

Union job. Pay isnt bad. Lots of people stay their whole career.

Cons

With so many people staying their entire career...its not the easiest job to move up in. Union forces you to live inside city limits so you have to pay city income tax.

Pros

Easy work guaranteed 40 hours a week great benefits no lay offs pension 457 or 401k paid sick days holidays and vacation days

Cons

You get penalized for using sick days to easy to lose progressions in the summer time the higher up have less work so they micromanage everything you do new rules are constantly being added it’s not a real union the union works for Pgw so it’s a conflict of interest when it comes time for them to defend you the company always puts the blame on you if they can never find a conclusive answer to a problem
