Pros

It pays most of the bills.

Cons

No training, and no accountability for the employees in any position. Management doesn't have good leadership skills or how to create a positive working environment. There are no expectations for employees to do well, or much of a reason for anyone to do a good job or perform well. It's a very depressing place to be for such a large part of the day.

Not a good place to work.

Pros

Financially they do well and they are well positioned to continue to have success. It's a sector that is necessary. Climate change will continue to keep their products popular.

Cons

They are entirely disorganized. Some folks hardly work at all and no one cares, some people are overworked and burning out. There's no cohesive culture. Your experience will entirely depend on who you have for a manager. They don't get rid of problems - they put a bandaid on it, cover it up, or ignore it entirely. They put all the energy into looking good -- investing in good PR and entering meaningless contests for cool work space so they look good (without showing the majority of the building is a cubicle farm and they made cosmetic investments just to win these silly accolades.) It is a very unwelcoming place for women and minorities.

Pros

Good starting pay, good insurance, co workers are helpful and fun to work with. Can drink soda or water at your work station. Hours are great. 6:30 until 2:30 . Work is interesting and fun to do. I Loved my job!

Cons

Mandatory ten hours days and saturday. Even if there is no work or parts. Managers want your input. Than when you give it. It goes in one ear and out the other or your laughed at. Human Resources, useless you do there work. Your boss doesn't even know the jobs we are doing. People quit every week or your fired. They change their company policies and don't notify you. HR useless you do there job, everything is on a computer go read it. The place has a revolving door. Good hard working people are leaving to go else where. They dont care here. Your a clock number not a skilled human being. They have there favorites too. Its not across the board for fairness. They cause a hostile work place. Morals very low its sad. This could be a profitable company. But management is just there to make there bonuses only and get there fat checks.
