Pros

If you like physical work, and being exhausted at the end of your shift, this is the job for you. I loved it! Great benefits, including stock options and discounts on purchases.

Cons

There is a hostile work environment, as I saw one group of people try to get people fired because they wanted to be the Queen Bee. The environment is very "high school," and if you pride yourself on being a responsible adult, that gets old really quick. What finally made me resign is for the last 3 weeks I would come in, clock in to my station, and they would have me clock out and literally stand around for 60-90 minutes while they looked for holes to plug me in to. I asked to switch departments so I could work, but myself and 35-30 others would do this every night. I want to be a part of a productive team, not one who stands around looking to plug holes. To this day, I was never introduced to my managers (the "red vests") and still don't have names to give when employment applications ask for supervisors. There were some really good ones, but no one ever told you who they were. A shame.

Pros

Good pay and benefits are great. Meet really great people here and build lasting relationships. Very easy to love up the ladder.

Cons

Management at this particular location is terrible. I've gone through 6 managers since I've started working here. They stay for a few months and then move on. Expect us to do more than we're able to.

Pros

Money and stock options. Lots of new roles

Cons

The culture needs work. I do not get the sense that they are looking to develop people. Its more of a churn and burn. There is no work life balance. I highly suggest a different role or company
