Pros

Very secure job, even if you unable to fullyfill your duties.

Cons

Overworking employees. Constantly raising workload, without changing a thing, no salary raises. Often find yourself work your tail off only to get passed over for a promotion that’s given to someone who glad-handed their way to the top. Management making promises to people, but they do not uphold a commitment. No one empathize with employees. No one cares about anything other than your production yield. Employees lower on the rank expected to work every minutes of them contracted hours, while management leaves early every day.

Pros

employed for over 10 years and I cant think of one pro other than the experience that I gained and what I learned on how NOT to treat people

Cons

no organization, goals are unrealistic, constant berating about proficiency and numbers with outdated equipment processes and a lot of manual work. Direction from the top is always changing, shoot from the hip ideas about how to run the operation. Absolutely no appreciation for hard work and dedication, we can replace you, you don’t matter mentality. Treated and talked to like you’re an idiot in front of peers and in public settings. Corporate HR is in the back pocket of the leaders who act this way, so they are no help. Leaders are allowed to act this way because they meet goals. If you speak up or voice your concern about how things are done or don't agree 100% with the direction, your position is eliminated due to "restructuring" the organization. Saw a lot of really good people lost because they had a different opinion about the direction from leadership
