Pros

Known for great job stability (company is not going anywhere), opportunity for advancement, great training program (about 3 months long)

Cons

Be ready for long hours. Six day work week with two days off (they treat your days off as sacred). You're required to work on holidays

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.
