Pros

The work was comfortable and rewarding, and I was able to work my preferred shift (2nd) without issue.

Cons

Management liked to bait-and-switch regarding things like benefits and COL raises. They'd promise pay increases according to merit, seniority, and economic factors, and then just restructure the pay scales again to get away with giving out smaller raises than they should have. Also a marked reluctance to perform necessary maintenance on factory equipment, usually only stepping in when something breaks catastrophically.

Pros

Lots of good people to work with. Room for growth if you apply yourself and try to advance your career. Vacation time accumulates quite well over time. Plenty of work to help days go by. Opportunity for lots of overtime pay.

Cons

Onboard training is minimal, with little structure. New employees are left to learn the ins and outs from their peers who more often than not are also quite new. Can be hard to get out of working overtime if you need to depending on what area you work in. There are departments/areas that have been left to operate on there own with minimal oversight/leadership.
