Pros

If you're willing to take on other people's work and stay over to finish you'll gain tons of experience. My coworkers were nice and conveyed a family oriented atmosphere in my department. Good place to gain experience even though compensation for the work may not be available. Okay benefits.

Cons

Management does not communicate well. They expect you to be a mind reader and will blame you for not understanding what they are trying to say. If you're not careful management will walk over you and supervisors will take credit for work that you completed. Pay is not competitive and raises are a joke. The company may have record breaking profits but they will still only give you a 1.5% raise. Management is very sneaky and will make unpopular decisions and then have a meeting to reiterate that there's nothing you can do about the changes and that you'll just have to deal with it, but they understand that you're upset. No incentive for good employees to stay.

Pros

Acceptable 401K matching with immediate vesting as well as an age based deferred compensation program that has a 3 year vesting period. Standard benefits and pay consistent with industry. Acceptable safety practices defined and adhered to throughout organization.

Cons

Moderately high turnover (at least my division). Inconsistent treatment of employees (flex time allowed for some employees but not others in same work category, some employees told to use personal car or phone for work activities while others get in trouble for same type of work activity, allowing some employees the options to apply and move internally while others are not allowed - and are sometimes even forced to moved to a role for which they didn't apply against their desires). Inconsistent reporting of data and legal brushes aside your questions/findings making you seem like you did something wrong when uncovering something fishy.
