Pros

-The pay (negotiated by the Union...if they could, they'd pay poverty wages). -The benefits (again, this is because of the Union)

Cons

-Everything. -Poor supply lines for material. (The old "Why's it not done?!"...."I'm still waiting on this material.") -Poor communication. -Not enough B foreman, so insufficient supervision, causing expensive rework. -Not enough access to prints and information for workers. -Pigeonholing of apprentices, stopping them from learning and progressing in their trade. -Unable to use the skills and knowledge of their workers properly. -They SQUEEZE workers. Constant pressure to produce. They have this ridiculous "points" system, which results in everybody cutting corners everywhere to get a few more "points" of production each day...this inevitably leads to problems and rework, which helps Canem dig their own grave. -Always trying to get one over on workers. Always. -Low morale. They do nothing to raise this. -The constant feeling that one is on a sinking ship, which one was. -They do not reward hard work. Work hard as a foreman and they'll just kick you to the curb when it's convenient for them.
