Pros

Allows employees to be innovative and stretch out into other areas of interest. Benefits are great.

Cons

The company will hold back money or recognition and just keep reminding you how lucky you are to work for them. You will be told things are tight and then the company will post record profits. The further up the chain you look, the scarier things get. The focus is always on volume and never on accuracy or safety. Upper management will never care about how well you did, only how much you did. They will say safety and accuracy is the number one priority but then set all expectations to where it clearly nullifies that.
