Pros
7 days a week work of wanted. PTO. Good benefits. Semi - decent starting pay. All the PPE you could ever need. Brotherhood/camaraderie amongst low - level employees. A small sense of being a part of something bigger then yourself.
Cons
No limit on how many hours certain employees are expected to work straight without sleep until an issue is resolved within the plant. When production is down safety is overlooked quite often. Hours can be cut anytime of the year without warning based on sales or getting trains out of the quarry. Lots of favoritism. Lots of “Do as I say, not as I do”, by Managers and Leads (aka assistant manager). You might make the same or close to as much as the guy next to you but do 4 times the work on a regular bases.
