Pros

Not existing! Not existing ! Nothing at all!

Cons

Worst company to work especially as a first job. You are considered as a slave rather than a human being. You have to work with senior psychopath who can destroy you in a couple of months. Management people give a lot of confidence to the elders and almost never listen to the new ones. Seniority can be a major asset in discrediting new talent facing former authoritarian colleagues.

Cons

Work-life balance can be inconsistent depending on department and production demands * Advancement opportunities may feel limited without moving into management or relocating * Communication and management consistency can vary between shifts/departments * Production pressure and changing priorities can create stress in quality-related roles * Some roles may require overtime or schedule flexibility that can be difficult for employees with family responsibilities * Recognition for process improvements and extra responsibilities may not always match workload expectations * Culture can feel more production-focused than employee-focused at times
