Pros
The working conditions were pretty nice for a factory. There were a variety of tasks that one could learn and opportunities to move to other assembly lines for a change of pace. Many of the workers had been there a long time as the company had previously been privately owned. I enjoyed working with most of my co-workers and liked my job. I worked in different positions during my time with them before they closed.
Cons
They did a good job of promoting from within, but I think that this sometimes hurt the company as they often promoted individuals based upon their personal relationship with the individuals making the hiring decision. Choosing someone because they are your relative, your friend, or you just feel sorry for them is a recipe for disaster, and I believe this led the company to make poor business decisions and ignore quality issues. People were also allowed to use personal cell phones on the floor, and this was a major distraction which should never have been allowed.
