Pros

The salary package is really competitive or above-average rate.

Cons

While the company tries to picture and foster a good culture, the undercurrent gossip culture is rampant, and the feedback from coworkers is unconstructive. Mistakes, errors, or anything that appears to them or is perceived as "unsuitable to their culture" will be passed around rather than discussed head-on, making you feel that you are walking on eggshells because your coworkers are like CCTV. Working with North American teams, particularly in the U.S., can put you in a tough spot and challenging position, because they somehow drift away from the European values of Dusseldorf.

Pros

Good pay, Union job, not terrible work overall

Cons

Management lacks communication and micromanages immensely. Since packaging shut down, outlook on this plant is grim, with little to no positive affirmations from management regarding long term outlook. Zero room for growth at this site.
