Pros

If you are in a managerial position, you will have good work-life balance.

Cons

It's usually a hit or miss with you managers and project leads. Most mangers don't have a clue what is going on. If you do well, they will take your credit away, and if you don't they will fire you and blame everything on you. I had 3 coworkers leave because of this issue. I was told by people who worked here for over 20 years that Corning used to be better about issues but lately it's just too much politics. You have to suck up and play the game. Stay away if you want to work hard at a decent job with credit. The town is great if you have family (younger kids), but if you are young or have kids that are in their teens, there's really not much going on here.
