Pros

Starting pay around $17.50/hr and after a year you'll be up to about $22.50/hr. The dock supervisors are good. Most of them have been in your shoes at one point in our terminal. Best priced benefit package I've seen for health, dental, and other perks that I do not take advantage of.

Cons

If full time you will have 50hr work week in five 10hr days. tough hours, usually graveyard shift for new hires. You're exposed to the elements you'll have no paid time off for the first year and requesting a day off in that time can be like pulling teeth.
