Pros

Almost all people at the "Group Manager" level or below are phenomenal people both personally and professionally.

Cons

Management doesn't care about people, they make it well known that you are replaceable. Nothing like being told you can be "promoted" and then you can't find an open job at the level so they tell you to either take a job at a lower level or leave the company. Management will give conflicting direction within the same call: increase production but lower inventory, reduce capital but go out and buy all this stuff.

Pros

training in in depth, training on job, basic star interview questions good company, stable benefits are somewhat cheap

Cons

training can be a lot, you have about 1-2hr presentations biweekly where you get tested on different aspects of the plant, like steam system, water system, utilities etc, training can last up to 6 months paid once a month, irregular times on call, may have to work weekends depending on machines work long shifts, sometimes up to 16 hours depending on how machines run, expected to be at work by 6am for safety meetings, 5am sometimes depending on the site you work at, expected to stay if machines run poorly can be demanding- most entry level managers are fresh out of college and expected to train and manage individuals who have worked at the company for decades not very easy to change departments, takes a couple of years no matching 401k, they have their own profit sharing thing, if you quit before 3-4 years at the company, you lose the money
