Pros
Performed well during the economic downturn, so instead of un/under-employeed I did have a job. On-site gym, cafe, xmas party, spring picnic.
Cons
Don't let any of the pros above fool you into going here. Managment (not just manufacturing management, ALL areas I was in FINANCE) is very much lacking. No people skills, no room for growth (salary, personally, professionally) with of course the exception of your job tasks. I stayed for about 3 years (through the recession, see PROS above) with no real increase in pay but my responsbilities grew monthly. Review process is a joke, you don't really get a job description just a "Do whatever it takes" instruction which in turn makes it easy for managment to nit-pick come review time in order to save $ on merit raises/bonuses. Also, why on earth would a C-level executive provide ANY MEANINGFUL feedback to an entry level employee during the annual review process? answer: MICROMANGEMENT; which is the name of the game here. Since leaving i've had family and friends comment that i'm an entirely new person. Understanding the longer hours if you're a revenue generating/production capacity but even in more admin related positions your manager will FIND things for you to do (NO VALUE ADDED) to make sure that you stay longer. Very little internal upward mobility in finance, and if you actually want to leave and go to another area you may get blocked from doing so (BY A C-Level employee mind you) on the basis that you need to improve in your current posiition (ABSOLUTELY no consideration as to what the employee seeks as far as job/professional growth). Now that the stock is in a downward spiral (people's vesting options are worthless, no reason to stay) you'll see plenty of jobs open here shortly. take my word for it (if possible) AND AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE EBOLA.
