Pros

It is really easy as you have a lot of free time if you are working at a good site. You are usually working by yourself

Cons

It could get really boring because you are working by yourself You always have to dress up in a really crappy uniform The only interaction you get at this job is saying "hello/good morning/hi/bye" to people that you deal with. Mostly of the employees are foreigners

Pros

Depends on what site you're contracted to. Decent pay, flexibility with hours, decent benefits package, it's a full time job.

Cons

Like with all contract jobs it's never a guaruntee how long you'll stay employeed. Management seems encouraged not to fire people that drag down the work day. Originally was told if I took a certain shift and schedule that it would put me in good position for promotion. That was a lie, they just needed to fill the shift. Overtime is nice but with all the OT they're giving out they need to hire more people and increase the pay rate. If you're looking for a deadend job, this place is great.
