Pros

10 paid holidays per year, 5 weeks vacation a year, 13 paid sick days per year which can be carried over to following year and accumulated. Also vacation time as well can be carried over and accumulated up to 440 hours per year. No limit on sick hours carried over. High starting pay. Has a Thirft savings plan (like a 401K). Gets more time off than any other company. Pays better than minium wage for unskilled labor.

Cons

It is a no frills job, no parties or picinics. Management treats employees poorly, plays favorites right in front of you, promotes only thier friends or family, claims to have laws againts descrimination, but does not go by them. Never rewards employees for good performance, the benefits are overated. There is no longer Civil Service Retirement, (ended over20 years ago) only social security and the Thrift Savings which is voluntary. No dental or vision insurance. Bad working conditions, no air-conditioning in vehicles or radio. Every day there is a argument with management about your time. They NEVER trust their employees. Once you capp out in pay it never goes up

Pros

This job is very stable and plenty of overtime is available to those who want it. The pay is higher than most similar jobs and the health benefits and retirement plans are fantastic. Vacation time is accrued quickly as is sick leave. Union representation is fairly good.

Cons

Incompetence and laziness are not dealt with. Management in a lot of cases is incompetent and too numbers driven. (But there are good people in management that I am happy to work hard for).
