      There are long days and nights sometimes; but overall it's a good job with some great people to work with.

      Pros

      The fellow work employees; some are great. The type of work. The pay. The upside of shift is the time off and the flexibility in time off. The amount of vacation time. Safety. If you don't mind shift and getting a little dirty sometimes; it's a great work place.

      Cons

      Communication. Treatment and fairness from management isn't very consistent at all in some departments. As far as I can see; in certain departments; the only downfall is management.

      Pros

      Open communication, focus on employee development and a pretty agile organisation considering its size. A leader in the business the image of the company was drastically refreshed while I was there (1995-2008).

      Cons

      It's a declining industry sector in North America and apparently they will go under a lot of change in the near future. The rirement of the 10+ year CEO, R. Royer could creat some anxiety in middle management and could result in many departures.
