Pros

Good pay, decent benefits and retirement. I worked with some good people. They had strong unions, but they are getting weaker daily.

Cons

Mangement! This is a money persuaded business. They could care less about your family and what is happening at home. You will be told often how your life at home is priority as well as your safety, but you better show up no matter what and if you get hurt, will fire you for something.
