Pros

Great company for stability. Very good training and great benefits. Very good, comfortable work atmosphere and is owned by Berkshire Hathaway. Good for product development and overall quality of products are great.

Cons

Does not pay well for super stars and tends to keep neutral talent while higher talented employees leave. Raise structure is no very good. Company like to keep people at median regardless of talent. Policy is strict on giving merit raises and thus does not allow much.

Pros

There are opportunities to learn and grow, but are few opportunities to move around career wise.

Cons

You will travel a lot from plant to plant. Travel reimbursement is given, but may not satisfy.
