Pros

Free health insurance. That’s it.

Cons

The job signed a union agreement and since then, employees feel punished whether you wanted the union or not. Mandatory work 7 days a week. They force you to come in on your scheduled off days and threaten write ups if you don’t. They don’t care about your families, other jobs, your school schedule. They now give 1 day of bereavement for grandparents, step siblings and step parents. They only make “newer” employees work mandatory OT. I’m considered new and I’ve been here for over 4 years.
