      Pros

      Work/life balance is great if you have the right manager. I rarely work overtime. 401k match is great. There's a clear career path if you're interested in being a manager. Working at John Deere looks great on a resume.

      Cons

      There's still very much this outdated, good ol boy culture at all the factories. Vacation and health insurance benefits are awful. There's not much room to grow if you want to stay in a technical role.

      Pros

      Interesting problems and good access to latest tools to do the job. Motivated coworkers

      Cons

      Upper management is absurdly disconnected from doing anything remotely valuable. They are useless. All vision and innovation comes from the lowest levels. We really don't need directors and above at this company - they take large salaries and promote the idiots instead of the innovators.
