Pros

This is a company that will never go out of business so you will always have a job

Cons

The hours you have to work are ridiculous, and if you cant find someone to fill a spot than get ready to work it. The chain of command is always suggested in times of trouble but if you go hire than your inner circle of management than you are considered a problem employee

Pros

Solid pay for the industry Okay benefits Employee stock purchase plan Pretty consistent hours The actual work is difficult, but fun after you get good at it. Upward momentum is difficult, but the pay scales very well if you work your way up into management. Prepare for intense work if you do though.

Cons

They hire everyone, and your team will make or break your experience. Genuine safety concerns on 3rd shift. You need to be prepared for people to act out. Senior management only have operation management skills. They are not good "people" managers at all. Only "number" managers.
