Business Outlook

Pros

Very great work environment with excellent pay. I love the the medical benefits. It's probably the only blue collar job on the planet where one can earn a minimum of 70,000.00 without a college degree.

Cons

Very dangerous job. Some of the employees I got the chance to work with had very crappy attitudes. Not all employees in the job environment are treated the same. Most of the undertrained workers are given more opportunity to make more overtime than workers with more experience.
