Pros

1) Most fellow employees are good to work with (not all locations) 2) The company is more than willing to train you if you want to advance in your trade or change careers within the company 3) The new training facility and the trainers in Pella are very knowledgeable, personable, and easy to work with, making the process of learning a lot less stressful and fun 4) The large onsite, hands-on training facility in Pella made transitioning into a new role much easier because I had actual machines and knowledgeable instructors right there to help me learn and ask questions

Cons

1) Management isn't always knowledgeable in the areas they are managing (not all locations) 2) Management is very young and so some just aren't "traveled" enough yet to understand how to handle situations (not all locations) 3} You can be written up for misconduct (or even fired) before you are even given an opportunity to be confronted on an incident or have any opportunity to respond to an allegation of misconduct, based on a one-sided complaint (not all locations)
