Pros

Compensation is the only thing

Cons

No work/life balance. They staff for their low volume months but have peak volume months at almost double the lows. You will be expected to work a lot. No advancement. The facility has no chance to succeed from a managerial standpoint. Managers are hired and fired within 2 years because of business choices from the past. There is very little documentation and no training when you walk in the door so, employees hold all the knowledge. No time- with the lack of adequate number of hands to complete a work week you do not have time to train, develop employees, or go to training to better yourself. All of which further exacerbates employee/management relationships Inadequate maintenance- you'll constantly be fighting failures of equipment and systems because of business decisions to save money over the last 15 years and a lack of enough maintenance personnel.

Pros

For the most part, I did not have to bring work home with me. Compensation was good. Benefits are on par with other corporations in the area, although they have been slowly eroding them.

Cons

Company still very siloed between the various business units. Middle and upper management do not work well with each other, and their strategy is not as clear as it could be. A lot of formerly in-house services have been outsourced, which has slowed down what were routine processes. Micromanagement seems to be on the rise.
