Pros

The base salary is good. Benefits for senior professionals include a vehicle (not fuel though). The medical insurance plan is good as is their retirement plan. The company philosophy of "People-Service-Profit" (in that order) is part of the oganizational culture and fabric. The work/life balance is excellent and allows for remote work from home. Management is fair. The organization offers very diverse opportunities for a project manager. It's a good place for a long term career.

Cons

Their bonus opportunity is not that great. Company cars do not include fuel costs. Their philosophy of putting people first has its drawbacks as perception management is a key skill for management (and project managers) to master. The functional organization structure and culture of silos can be complex to overcome for a project manager. Being an American based organization you may be required to work early evenings from time to time depending on the project. Staff turnover is low which does require one to have patience if professional advancement is an objective.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
