Pros

Corporate office is modern and state of the art. Building designed to ensure most employees can see daylight from their desk. Many opportunities for global travel. Steller health insurance. Having good General Manager makes it a wonderful place to work.

Cons

Company struggles between antiquated business practice and progressive ideas. HR rep is close personal friend of CEO and his family, strong bias towards management over employee interests. A lot of internal political struggle that favors older employees over new hires which engenders an uncomfortable, sometimes hostile, work environment. Having a bad General Manger can make it a toxic place to work.

Pros

For me it was closeby. 401k and health benefits. It pays medium range.

Cons

It is a VERY dirty job. Management is running the place into the ground. I was constantly wondering if the place will be in the red or black. The outlook wasn't very good from a business standpoint. I put in my 2 weeks notice and they resigned me immediately, and they shorted me on my vacation time payout. They pretend to care about you but its all a paper trail to cover their behinds. Engineering staff is a joke in a facility that requires constant coordination with engineering, management and maintenance. Turnaround is high and training is nonexistent so people don't know what to do, or how to effectively do their jobs. Health benefits exist but pretty expensive to employee. Very little chance of moving up, and company policy applies to whomever they choose.
