Pros

Have enough business that there is no threat of the company going under any time soon.

Cons

If you work as a supervisor like I did, they will start you out working a normal 8 to 9 hour day until you take over a shift then you will be expected to work 14 plus hours on a 4-3, 3-4 schedule as well as come in on your days off for meetings and training with no overtime compensation. This leads to high turnover in the supervisors so they are seen as little more than temporary babysitters by the hourly workers.

Pros

Nothing good about working there

Cons

Being forced to work 70+ hours a week. Not a well organized operation for such a large company. There's the right way to do things and then there is the silgan way.

Pros

Decent place to work iff

Cons

Your local manager can make this job or break it. If your manager is the type to string you along just to keep you happy enough not to quit, you are going to be very frustrated.
