Pros

Everyone on the interview team was very welcoming and put me at ease. The interview agenda was very well organized. The benefits and compensation package that was offered exceeded my expectations.

Cons

The mere size of the plant and the reporting structure may be overwhelming for some. However, employees at Ascend seem to be very patient and willing to answer questions.
