Pros

Competitive pay, great benefits. Great coworkers.

Cons

HR teams out of touch with manufacturing reality. Company treats its manufacturing teams like liabilities instead of assets. Forgets that value creators make the products that pay the bills. Manufacturing sites starved of any amenities while corporate offices lavish with perks. HR teams not geared to support the cultural aspirations the company claims to have. Employment agreements used as weapons again employees when terminated.

Pros

Great benefits and cafeteria! Working from home is also a plus.

Cons

Controllership Management is horrible. You never see upper management, unless there is an image function, ie, Zoo outing or bowling function. They are never in the office, nor does this person ever comingle with the rest of the team. None of them care about you or your career development, they are out to make themselves look good and that is it. Refusal of recognition is ridiculous. If they think you should not be noticed, they will deny you the rightful recognition. It's bad when a whole team doesn't like their manager! People are dropping like flies and fleeing from this toxic department.
