Business Outlook

Pros

Had first interview at college campus. After two weeks they contacted me if I wanted a second interview and I accepted, They payed for my meals and gas money to drive to where the second interview was going to be held. If you get a second interview you are pretty much in. You wil get very good training and experience.

Cons

Your social life will be over, was working 12-15 hour shifts. If you get at least 6 hours of sleep a day you will be lucky. Was working an 11-3 rotation. 11 days on 3 days off. If you are looking for a nice office job this is definatly not for you.

Great pay and tons of paid time off.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great pay, excellent benefits, work only 34 weeks/year, 17 weeks off-duty + 1 additional week of vacation (all 18 off-weeks are paid for at 40 hours) TONS of work to get done--job security, excellent training programs, they invest a lot of money in training new/current employees, lots of different career opportunities to be able to move up to.

Cons

I've noticed a lot of employees don't stay for long because pay is definitely not competitive with competitors, poor communication amongst managers-to-employees and to other managers. I personally don't care how long the work hours are, the more, the better, it's what I signed up for and I'm here to make some serious money! Give me all the work you got!! :)
