Pros
The pay is decent, considering it's pretty basic production work and only requires a HS diploma and no prior experience. The hours (excluding overtime) are nice too, considering it's just 8 hours in and out. It's easy work for a decent pay.
Cons
As a production floor worker, it's very difficult to get out and into a different field in the company (say, the field of my degree). Management claims they'll help, but nothing comes of said help after a few weeks. They can also call overtime on you at within a 24 hour time frame and if you have plans already, and someone else already has the day off, you better cancel or else you get a mark against you for missing work because they decided to tell you you have to come in to work tomorrow for overtime. If your shift happens to be short on people too, it doesn't matter because you're still expected to hit the exact same target as any other shift that's fully staffed and if you happen to miss said targets, your supervisor can get on your case about it, claiming "short on people" isn't a valid enough excuse, which means you've got to work the amount of 2-3 people to make the same amount as the other shift. Management keeps talking about "teamwork" too, but teamwork seems awful nonexistent, as each shift tends to prefer competing against one another too, and not in the friendly competition way. Management doesn't seem useful for much of anything either, except to tell you you're not doing your job good enough when you don't hit goals.
