Pros

benefits are good..opportunity for advancement, pay is good after you top-out in 5 years, however new hires will most likely work night shift for 10 years before you can get a day job

Cons

Bottom line is the $$$...Don't expect anything other than a paycheck. Plenty of overtime! No 401K match.While management bonuses skyrocketed, technician's bonus took a nose dive! Haven't had a GWI in .Hmm, I can't remember the last pay raise! I make less now than 10 years ago doing the same job.

Pros

Stable work - buses on the road every day, so tire service tends to be more predictable than some other retail work. Mechanical experience - You'll gain experience with heavy-duty vehicles, commercial tires, fleet operations, safety procedures, and potentially CDL-related skills. Physically demanding - Frequent lifting of tires, pushing heavy equipment, bending, kneeling, and working around large vehicles are regular parts of the job.

Cons

Repetitive labor - Much of the work involves mounting, balancing, and repairing large tires repeatedly throughout a shift. Safety risks - Working with heavy commercial tires and transit vehicles requires strict adherence to safety procedures and PPE requirements.
