Pros

Work-life balance is good.

Shift allowance makes up for the poor base salary.

The work isn’t too demanding either.

Decent place to work; the work-life balance outweighs the majority of cons.

Cons

A full month of 12-hour night shifts can be hard.

They promote an environment saying we learn from our mistakes, but when a mistake is made, they will hang you out for it, so it’s hard to really learn anything on your own.

Training isn’t great unless your shift manager and senior techs are interested in training.

Be prepared to work at least one day/night every weekend.

You get paid the same as a bank holiday for working Christmas Day. There hasn’t been any Christmas bonus for the past 2 years, even if you work Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and Stephen's Day (this is actually a shift you have to work).

Too many senior managers are involved in one area, all doing the same job.

Advice to Management

They’ve heard it all before; nothing gets through to them.
