Pros

Stock Meeting those in the community

Cons

They expect so much out of you with no support. Upline talk ls down to you if you aren't perfect, you must show up and work sick sick. Meetings pretty much every week. Late nights, no free time, if it isn't a vacatio or scheduled day off you can't get off for anything, so you will miss so many things. Work all holidays and won't get much sleep.

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
