Pros

company is doubling it's production lines in 2015 so is hiring people

Cons

long 12 hours shifts, 7am-7pm or 7pm-7am, workweek is 3x12 hr shift/ 4 days off then 4x12 hr shift/ 3 days off following week. manufacturing is 24/7 operation, no overtime pay when working the 48 hr week or on weekends. when working, too tired at end of shift and have no time anyways to do anything else then to go home, eat and sleep in order to start all over again the next day. new employees on the manufacturing line will likely start on the night shift since that's the least desirable, however will get 5% more pay. the assembly job is essentially watching over a part of the the automated assembly line and taking corrective actions when something goes wrong. it is tedious and repetitive. you are judged on the basis of maintaining production quotas while meeting quality standards don't expect much job satisfaction here

Pros

The technology is interesting and there are some nice people there.

Cons

Too much yelling. The company only has one speed, overdrive and the only way they know to motivate is to push harder. The entire staff is demoralized and demotivated. I know people were hopeful that things (i.e. management) would change with the new owners, but now that that hasn't happened everyone I know is sending out resumes.
