Pros

Good boss who recognized my efforts and truly encouraged work/life balance, prioritizing family. Compensation and benefits were great.

Cons

Turmoil in the business units created leadership uncertainty- saw some great people, with lots of experience, let go because they asked questions and challenged ideas.

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
