Pros

Good company to work for.

Cons

Pay is low. Lots of conflict of interest, being told to hire family members of management and supervision. If your not related to anyone, your direct management will set you up to fail so their buddies can move up.

Pros

Good insurance. The dental insurance pays at 80%, most other companies only pay 60% or less.

Cons

Prepare to work over every day and the weekends, and if you're salary, you won't get paid for it. Management over supply chain didn't have knowledge of even the basics of supply chain. The manager came from the floor and was clueless about how parts were purchased and planned and inventory utilization. Despite having years of experience in supply chain, I was never listened to when I stated the problems and some possible solutions. They didn't want to hear anything that involved getting any other department on board with changes to make things better. Millions were lost because of scrap issues, but no one would address the problems.
