Pros
  1. Teamwork and a positive work environment with colleagues.
  2. Work on products which are both exciting and challenging for appreciative customers.
Cons
  1. Small teams result in being assigned the team pager every month and five weekend months carrying the pager twice for those months.
  2. Long hours with little work/life balance around the holidays.
  3. Pager pay and off-shift compensation were reduced, then eliminated.
Advice to Management

Train the existing employees rather than attempt to hire new talent for less salary, but with current skills.
