      Pros

      Great people to work with, opportunities to work with others

      Cons

      No opportunities for growth, management making bad choices for company, only select few get advancement and not necessarily top performers, top performers are expected to stay in their positions so they don't have to train someone else

      Undervalue the human resource. Middle management lacks experience.

      Pros

      In general most front line supervisors and lower level coworkers are good to deal with. Some middle management lacks knowledge and leadership skills.

      Cons

      Lack of leadership form middle management what they say is what it is even though they have no clue in what their doing. Too many smoke screens and nothing gets solved. Finger pointing within departments,between departments and plants, and nothing gets fixed. They promote people to management positions with degrees rather than the experience to be managers. Stop trying to make engineers into managers when they lack leadership experience. They treat employees like they treat machines. They take too long to get rid of the bad apples.

      Pros

      if you could avoid contact with upper management work was actually enjoyable. coworkers were easy to work with and lower management was far more approachable.

      Cons

      Upper management is very unapproachable. I was even made to feel stupid for asking questions.
