Pros

depending on department/shift good and fun coworkers to be around, if you want to push a button and move metal from bin to machine to bin, for 8 hours then good job for you

Cons

upper management is awful, departments don't do their job causing other departments to do more work than needed, pay is respectable on the lines but other departments dont get paid as much as they should, note: imo this is a nageative but others may feel different-we are currently on 8.5 hour shifts with a 30 min unpaid lunch, so instead of 9-5 its a 9-5:30

Pros

You definitely can advance here as a welder, technician or whatever.

Cons

We sat in orientation about safety for six plus hours. Once I started working there, I started it feel like nobody was following basic safety protocols, and not only that, but I was also pressured not to. The station I was put on constantly had issues where my partner and I would have to step on the conveyor belt while it was still active to fix stuff, and that STILL wasn't fast enough for the plant coordinator. Just completely shameful.
