Pros

Decent pay, good work life balance in fact too much of a work life balance that it would become a con. The job would be helpful to newly married or those pursuing an MBA cos they would have a lot of time to study or spend time with their spouse

Cons

The company hires like crazy and fires the same way, be ready for layoffs every 3 years though its becoming more frequent now. Like I mentioned in my title, it has a very haphazard reporting structure and very laid back approach, to implement a process or project it will take ages. There is no synchronization between plants and the corporate with plants operating as separate entities

Pros

You get paid for doing OT on weekends at the plant I work at now If you are in a shift that has less staffing you might earn more money on weekends as you will not have anyone to rotate with or less people to rotate with I am happy to have a manager who understands I have a lot of work pressure

Cons

If you are in a shift that has less staffing you will have a lot of work to do. For me the con is lots of work pressure in the shift I work. I think I do the work of atleast 2 people and sometimes even more. First shift will have people to rotate on weekends. Unfortunately 2nd shift doesn't have people to rotate with. We end up working every weekend but have same number of vacation days. People in 2nd can get there vacation days used up before other shifts. But still I would say its a good company considering I work in a manufacturing facility.
