Pros

-Every day tends to be different. -You can learn a variety of different skills, albeit, skills that would be difficult to transfer to other companies well. -President and CEO seem like genuinely decent people. -There is a decent amount of trust in the employees, which gives freedom to use what resources you need in order to complete the task. -JI pushes the envelope in composite tooling manufacturing, creating some of the processes and having patents on many procedures thereby. -Companies get contracts based on the condition that they use our services. We are in demand, and that is a good thing for the companies long term future.

Cons

-Raises? There does not seem to be a structure in place the provide regular raises. -The glass ceilings are hard here. Those with engineering schooling can do well at JI, but those without find it difficult to leave the production floor. -Tying those two together, the compensation is not family wages unless you have an engineering degree and are in a production management or manufacturing engineering role. ***The executive's words don't reflect company actions. There is much talk about JI supporting families and striving to be a family orientated company. Caution. It is not rare to spend months on 10 hour days, sometimes even 12 hours. In addition, don't expect to have any sort of predictability with your schedule, or the ability to plan your life beyond work. Working Saturdays on top of a 50+ hour week is common, and they often occur for most of the summer, often with only a day or two notice. Your family may be important, but don't let them interfere with work, as much is sacrificed for the sake of production and ship dates. Most of this is driven by the hiring of toxic upper managers, and poor production planning and resource control.
