Pros

Decent benefits, that's it. Vacation and time off. 401k decent. Presidents change a lot. Longevity of employees is good. Some good employees, not managers.

Cons

Your only safe here if your in the union. You'll never get fired. Non union with tons of years gets laid off like nothing, they just want more money for the company. They have managers with no degrees thinking they are God just because they have a lot of years.

Pros

Great with previous leadership. But then...

Cons

New leadership is not as dedicated to employees as previous (although bonuses have been better). New middle management there is a lot of nepotism. Once a stable company, layoffs have been a common occurrence since COVID.
