Pros

Good brand recognition and strong market presence Decent Asociacion Solidarista, I guess the best in Costa Rica, benefits package is ok not outstanding Stable job environment

Cons

No Opportunities to work with cross-functional teams No career advancement opportunities at all for Costa Rica – internal mobility is almost nonexistent for Costa Rican people working for the HR field, and promotions are provided to US colleagues as Manager convenience and not because they deserve it Lack of mentorship or structured development plans Management often overlooks internal talent in favor of external hires Feedback culture is weak – little to no career conversations or growth-focused evaluations Work can become repetitive with no clear path for progression Managers of the area have their preferred co-workers and therefore, they force you mandatory to do their jobs, even if is not under your task.

Pros

Amazing benefits and opportunities to buy stock per month. Transferring to different locations and states is very easy after 6 months to a year of employment. Training paid for on an annual basis.

Cons

None at this time of entry.

Pros

You can make money but it all depends on the orders you get, how fast you can go, how long you can maintain that pace without getting burned out. Definitely a young mans sport, as the do refer to you as "industrial athletes."

Cons

Like many industries the hours can be long. For the ones who don't make much on running above rate then you can make up for it in hours. If you soak the hours and run you can definitely make some big money. The turn over rate is extremely high there, even in management. I used to be proud of the union but the teamsters in Cleveland are completely worthless, I would bet they are getting paid under the table to not fight for contract negotiations. When I was there the contract expired and they barely fought for anything, on voting day they literally said they wont back us up if we don't pass this contract....so consider that when you want to work for this place. Also the equipment is so old and broken that people were taking the scanners home just so they could have a good one for the next night.
