Pros

Work is pretty straight forward once you get the hang of things. People are nice to work with.

Cons

Lack of personnel resources. Manufacturing equipment is often down or needs maintenance. You work with very old technology so parts are often outdated / needing new materials, trouble sourcing parts, lead times, etc.
