Pros

Stupid money for what you do, pays great. Awesome benefits with pension. Flexible with your schedule. Great coworkers. Get all the overtime you want.

Cons

The management is trained so that EVERYTHING is the dock worker's fault. No matter how you get injured/written up, it's your fault. I got hurt from a beam falling on me that I had no control of and they told me I was not being careful. The schedules suck. It's either 4AM, 12PM, 2PM, 8PM, or midnight. Extremely dusty. You'll cough black soot and sweat gray. My tears from yawning are literally black. The supervisors take advantage of their authority. Big time.

Pros

- Insurance benefits are offered to part time employees - Pay is sufficient based on being part time - Management will send some communications regarding big picture matters - There is some leniency regarding calling out of work

Cons

- The requirement to maintain insurance is becoming more difficult - Employees are not paid the same rate simply based on tenor rather than qualifications - Management will rarely, if ever, address direct employee concerns - Leniency for calling out only seems to apply for certain employees - There is no standard of training or written expectations readily available once hired
