Pros

At times the overtime can be great if you like to work a lot. Also you have great co-workers here that make the job easy on you and fun at times. Its a very interesting job with a lot of room to learn more and try to earn more money. The general workers are represented by a union so it helps out a bit, although the union could use some work.

Cons

Just like a lot of places, you have up and down time, and when it gets slow there is always a possibility of lay offs. Also management at times likes to play around with company policies to screw you over.
