Pros

Family run business managed for long term success, not quarterly earnings. Management truly treats employees with respect. Lots of employees retire from Ellwood. It's a place you can build a career, not just hold a job. Not many people get to work somewhere where you are building essential components of everyday life, for applications like transportation, aerospace, and energy. It's extremely rewarding to see a car or plane or ship and think that your hard work is making it possible!

Cons

Ellwood runs very lean. If you don't have an entrepreneurial approach to work you may find this environment taxing.

Pros

Coworkers are awesome, working conditions are great, business casual attire, no micro managing, supervisors support us

Cons

Compensation changes move very slowly. Even if you have your supervisor on your side, their supervisor, and even THEIR supervisor on your side, there's a bottleneck in upper management somewhere that slows the whole process WAY down. Yearly bumps to accommodate minimum inflation occur routinely, but other changes move at a snail's pace.
