Pros

If you want a relaxed environment where you can hide, this is your place

Cons

Top leadership doesn't want you to think, just follow what they've always done. The engineering leadership is unwarrantedly egotistical. They grew up in the company but anywhere else they would not survive in their roles. Their business model is to copy competitors, offer it at a lower price, and have good customer service. From an engineering perspective, copying known good products in the market is fairly uninspiring.

Pros

-Air conditioned building. -Computer chairs to sit in during work.

Cons

-Upper management and above is abysmal. I had 6 managers over the course of 3 years of working there. "Organizational change ups", firings and just walking out, seem to happen routinely due to the rot at the top. -Management outright lied about co-workers and my performance in our yearly reviews as an excuse to deem our positions as obsolete and then the company laid us off. -Lots of detrimental policies for lower level employees including the "pay differentials" and will gladly underpay mid level employees while consistently stacking more responsibilities on you. -Non-first shift employees are consistently ignored and disregarded despite most of them having longer tenure then the revolving door of employees on 1st shift. -Company leadership likes to demand mandatory overtime for Electronic Assemblers way too often resulting in slumps of work where they'll "offer" unpaid time off. -Company is also hyper reactive and volatile when trying to meet demand. Including laying off the majority of a third shift when work got slow, to then mass hiring for all shifts nearly doubling low level employees including a weekend shift about a year after cutting the 3rd shift, that has now been dwindled back down to similar employment levels only 8 months later.
