Pros

Good pay and benefits. Well known brand. Opportunity for new hires to gain experience quickly. Great coworkers.

Cons

Dysfunctional work environment. Global senior leaders manage to stock price, forcing initiatives into each business and region that are disconnected from local strategic conditions, and then force restructures every 6 months when numbers erode. Struggle to innovate, except through acquisition. Very little personal growth potential. A very high degree of nepotism and elitism in senior management.

Pros

Good pay, Union job, not terrible work overall

Cons

Management lacks communication and micromanages immensely. Since packaging shut down, outlook on this plant is grim, with little to no positive affirmations from management regarding long term outlook. Zero room for growth at this site.
