Pros

Good peer interaction and extracurricular activities such as sports and events are attended religiously. Lots of workplace camaraderie. Decent benefits for full time workers. Good recruitment programs. Lots of job opportunities throughout the US and International locations. Lots of in house training.

Cons

inexperienced upper management at the local levels. There were too many upper level site managers with little experience as leaders trying to lead an older and more experienced group of middle management and production staff. They are tossed into the leadership fray based on education and without much needed OJT technical experience. At times they appeared indecisive and overwhelmed with business decisions. Poor treatment of temp workers...

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
