Pros

Besides numerous benefits which I will list, Septa provided me with an opportunity to learn on the job and opportunities to advance myself as far as my work ethic can take me. I can go back to school and be reimbursed and i can afford health insurance for myself and my family. Sometimes working a less than desireable shift gets old, but there is no job out there that provides the same benefits and opportunities to its entry level employees. If the shift gets old I just think back to my past jobs with less than half the pay, half the hours, and no opportunity for advancement. Great pay, cheap health care, vacation and personal days, paid holidays, tuition reimbursement, upward mobility.

Cons

Besides working weekends; none experienced yet

Pros

Free rides on public transit

Cons

If you come in as entry level engineer the only way to move from entry level to higher level position is to wait the prescribed number of years, which is 2.5 years, even if you came in with experience
