Pros
Creator of many great reasons to seek therapy. Perfect opportunity to leave your family! You get $2 chicken sandwiches or pizza sometimes :)
Cons
Non competitive pay Upper managers pick favorites Morons off the street are hired more often than we promote from within Cannot maintain proper staffing Poor communication Argumentative leadership Managers sleeping with direct reports Fail to take care of their machinery, then wonders why everything runs bad Poor decisions in sales, management, or quality only seem to affect the operators Quality control went out the window years ago Union sympathizers are targeted When the company slips up, your work life balance is what's punished The company has to work 7 days a week and cut all corners to maintain the illusion of keeping up with demand. Any concerns raised to the parent company can also lead to you getting fired HR exists only to probe into union activity. A lot of smiling faces just looking out for the company that provide zero help or solutions. Leadership will actively target "troublemakers" during meetings for things they did not do Failure to follow up on promises "Bonuses" have withered away to 1/10th of what they were 7 years ago, that is if you get one at all. There is a serious lack of training Some people are doing the work of 2-3 positions without proper compensation They'll use you for your extra skillsets, but only when it's convenient for them and they will not pay you for it without a fight. Strongly works against union supporters as if they're Ford in the 1930s.
