Pros

I loved the pay, the job, the fast pace, and the day to day challenges. The first 11.5 years were great!

Cons

Constantly hiring kids out of college to be supervisors, who would do anything, even lie, to move up the corporate ladder. Do not get hurt here, you will be thrown under the bus. They will HIDE any record of a past work order\orders to repair the equipment that you were injured on. They make people come right back to work following an injury there, even right after surgery, to keep from ruining their "safety record" Do not expect to be thanked for a job well done. 13 years, personally thanked three times. They never addressed problems with people that continuously slacked off.

Manufacturing, so always wanting more with less. Hard to please as they are constantly changing everything.
