      Pros

      You get a paycheck. You have a job.

      Cons

      Retirement options went to crap when UTC took over. 401k contributions went down for the peons. Surprised they didn't find a way to get rid of my future pension benefit. Merit pay increases are a joke, they average 2% across a team. Bonuses have gone the way of the dodo for peons. You have to be an executive to "qualify" for one. No career advancement. Took 15 years to get a promotion from test tech to sr. tech and then they got rid of the sr. position. Forget about going from a technician to engineer, unless you have a "favored" degree, you are ignored or just passed over for someone "just a bit better".

      Pros

      40 hr/wk Easy work for the pay Ability to use vacation with little notice Some leadership is willing to help you move up and increase pay quickly

      Cons

      Leadership does not communicate with one another Little room to move up or into another department without someone leaving Poor standards in comparison to other sites within the company Employees who do not meet efficiency standards receive no consequences and are not informed of process issues (leadership issue) Tribal knowledge seems to run the site, not standard work It is a family affair.
