Pros

Ok starting salary but nothing compared to engineers and union workers Good 401K matching (2% contribution to 8% match) Pension after 5 years

Cons

Extremely poor management Office politics are ever present and management will hold you back to ensure you don't succeed Union workers (operators and mechanics) will easily out earn you and be offered more career advancement opportunities Further education needs to be approved by management, that is it needs to be a business need, although the company says they'll reimburse you for 75% tuition Company is definitely more engineer friendly Poor career opportunities unless you are an engineer

Pros

Great opportunities, friendly culture that promotes employee career growth, managers and coworkers respect you. Sincere about work-life balance and wants more people to become "lifers." If you don't like your current job or team, the organization is large and flexible enough to find a place where you do.

Cons

Can become a bit dull, culture of wanting to be "the fastest follower" rather than the innovators, culturally conservative and risk-averse. More people are process followers rather than process makers/creative thinkers. Extremely inflexible for international-hire employees or those in certain, more remote locations. Many talented and longer term employees left for other equivalent or better opportunities because of this.
