Pros

Great base pay, flexible management who put employees needs high on the list. Good companies attract good people. The health, safety and general well being of the employees would rival any company.

Cons

A larger company sometimes mean things are done at snail pace and urgency in some things is not at the forefront. Decisions tend to take longer than they should.

Benefits are fantastic, employee share program, inexpensive insurance options with generous HSA contributions ($3000 per year), ample opportunities for career growth for those willing to relocate (internationally sometimes)

Pros

Local environment is very friendly and laid back. Everyone is helpful. The benefit package is nice as well. We do get the option to purchase company shares, 100% company match up to 6% for 401k plus additional deposits.

Cons

Our company was recently purchased by Rio Tinto and their IT groups are very secular and specialized which makes it hard to communicate and get things resolved. I’ve also compared my salary to others with the same job title within manufacturing companies in my state and found my salary is way below the benchmark.
