Pros

I spent a week shadowing the various job roles available at Nammo as part of a work experience week in 2020. Each department is well organized and incredibly interesting with ample room to grow and develop and learn the skills of the trade. Their equipment and facilities are modern and high quality which spreads to their products also. The staff are friendly and work as a close knit team. They included me into the Nammo family immediately, and each department I spent time in shared their profound passion for their work and workplace. Every person was interested in my own interests and took some of their own time to talk to me about their roles and what they pertained, as well as how they received their education, the many opportunities available for career advancement in Nammo and the diverse range of backgrounds they had all come from.

Cons

Cannot say that I have any cons. Perhaps I did not spend long enough there but on a whole my experience was greatly enjoyable and informing and had my career interests not changed from an engineering path to an arts one since then I would return to work there in a heartbeat!

Pros

Guaranteed 40 hours a week, cool coworkers mostly, no experience needed to be an Assembler I. Generally you're supposed to work four, ten hour shifts.

Cons

Poor raises, raises are also pro rated so expect your first one to be nearly worthless. Upper lower management at my location treats employees like metrics, and showed quite a bit of favoritism. They preach safety like it's extremely important (and it is), then push super hard for you to hit production numbers and cause people to make very unnecessary abnormal mistakes, which is a very big problem when making explosives. Management also receives monthly bonuses for hitting metrics, which means you're always gonna be pressured to hit them, even if it's not safe. All the while saying you need to be safe and pressing hard for numbers.
