Pros

Generally decent company ethics. While many at the company do not have a healthy work/life balance, I received little criticism for being someone who did. Outside of core hours, clock out and in times were fairly flexible. Even as an engineer, the work generally did not require much critical thinking, which some may appreciate.

Cons

Outdated in every sense: work culture, business practices, etc. Most people there have worked there for decades. Those who don't adapt to the culture don't last long. They have had a system of doing business for over 100 years and it has worked for them, so they refuse to change or incorporate modern innovations. Much of my time was spent filling out incomprehensible forms built with outdated technology, most of which did not require engineering knowledge or expertise.

Pros

The work is interesting. Some decent travel is available if desired. If you work hard and set yourself apart from others you can earn a promotion.

Cons

It’s all about who you know. All responsibilities fall on Engineering. Engineering does much more than “engineer” and spend too much time on stuff that admin staff “should be able” to do. When something needs to change the usual solution is to have Engineers be responsible for it because many non-engineers can’t handle mediocre tasks.
