Pros

Good benefits. Most worker bees are nice and willing to help each other.

Cons

Some management is self consumed with their own promotion at the cost of quality work. When something doesn't go right, they are quick to place blame on one of their subordinates even if this was something caused out of their own decision. In short, often times there is no right decision the subordinate could've made. It really comes down to if the manager does not like the outcome they will look for someone to blame rather than take ownership.

Pros

Learned alot with 20+ years with the company, fun place to work, meet great people, Awesome pay.

Cons

Management will throw you under the bus to save themselves, will not stick up for employees, supervisor yelling at team meetings, slamming things around and acting childish. Best micromanager out there.
