Pros

Good benefits. Lots of recreation groups and a caf that serves decent food at low costs. Lots of opportunity for overtime. You go to work, do what you have to do and leave- no one watching and tracking your time.

Cons

Either you're a lifer or a temp or newly converted to permanent. Very slow pace if you want to move up in titles have to leave your department. Lifers (usually the ones in charge) are not really open to change and improvement to records. The culture values are great in theory but are not always followed in manufacturing.
