Pros

The pay is pretty good for the work load. Nothing with regards to the job is very hard or challenging at all. The benefits are okay not outstanding, but okay.

Cons

Work life balance not great. The job is stressful due to the people. The environment is robotic, and I mean the people. They all fall in line. This seniority based company holds seniority date above work output and work ethic. Managment is not very helpful nor are they prompt. There is a war between 1st, 2nd, and 3rd shift. It is rare to find people helping each other out. Although they preach one team one dream. It is very much an every man for himself kind of place. And it is as if technicians show no pride in their job and are only there to collect a paycheck. This is understandable though, because people are not trained adequately nor are they held accountable consistently. They also do very little to help unite teams. They have a meal on your lunch break once or twice a year and maybe one day where they can spare an hour per year to do a quick results/ game. And that sums up the team building. Oral care Iowa City is a major let down. Find another P&G to work for would be my recommendation.

Pros

training in in depth, training on job, basic star interview questions good company, stable benefits are somewhat cheap

Cons

training can be a lot, you have about 1-2hr presentations biweekly where you get tested on different aspects of the plant, like steam system, water system, utilities etc, training can last up to 6 months paid once a month, irregular times on call, may have to work weekends depending on machines work long shifts, sometimes up to 16 hours depending on how machines run, expected to be at work by 6am for safety meetings, 5am sometimes depending on the site you work at, expected to stay if machines run poorly can be demanding- most entry level managers are fresh out of college and expected to train and manage individuals who have worked at the company for decades not very easy to change departments, takes a couple of years no matching 401k, they have their own profit sharing thing, if you quit before 3-4 years at the company, you lose the money
