Pros

Decent salary, You can learn the industry without having to buy a franchise.

Cons

Poor management. You feel as if you have 3 (or more) bosses that do not communicate. To advance you will spend 80% of your time in hotels

Pros

Decent pay but not above national standards, decent benefits and insurance. Members of corporate office seem down to earth and realistic.

Cons

Plant managers are absolutely awful and do not care about the associates at all. They are great at putting on dog and pony shows for corporate but once they head back to Kenosha all hell breaks loose and it is a daily struggle to meet requirements. Expect to work 6-7 days a week so there is no work/life balance and do not expect graditude in return from managers, you are lucky to get a $25 gift card to Wal-Mart for your Christmas bonus. My particular plant managers manage from the security cameras so that they can relax in their office and not have to step on the plant floor and interact with the disgruntled employees and the real issues that are negatively impacting their day to day jobs.

Great pay and benefits. Numerous opportunities to advance.

Cons

Limited number of manufacturing plants in US. Would like to do an international assignment but don't ever see them posted on the internal job boards.
