Pros

My manager is flexible in my work hours just as long as I get my work done. Pay is fair, and although I always want more money no matter what, pay is high for what I do. Training is good. On site medical clinic for free is outstanding. Just learned Piper is opening a new cafeteria that is going to have partially company funded food. Great!

Cons

Sometimes weekend work is “strongly encouraged”
