Pros

The pay is above average for the area, the people are good for the most part, and the work isn't terribly difficult. You get several paid holidays. You are eligible for medical and dental benefits after three months.

Cons

The work is fast-paced and pretty repetitive. You may be required to work a lot of overtime and the work is a little grungy. Also, the mornings start as early as 5:00 am or earlier. It's pretty hot in the building during the summer months.

Pros

Pros are getting more difficult to find. The company was bought out so one pro might be profit sharing....in 5 years...well 4.5 because it's been since the start of the year.

Cons

Unqualified safety team makes everything a hassle, nobody cares top to bottom, bought out and they are tightening their belts. When sold the owners kept almost all the profits in the company because they were in talks to sell for 2 years so instead of rewarding the employees that had been there for 40 years, they kept it in the company, raising the price then gave the ESOP program a tiny slice of that. Just a terrible exit by the kids of the founders who actually knew everyone there, they would go out to the shop and help. Their kids were lazy, inauthentic, no innovation or even attempt, and they do not have a sales team causing the work to be really spikey.
