Pros

Not many. Benefits are getting worse but still OK. Pay is going downhill or backward compared to the cost of living.

Cons

See Pros. Pay going down compared to cost of living. Benefits are decreasing with every contract. Company expects you to be available 24/7 and fires you if you aren't. Safety is less of a concern each and every day.
