Pros

Peers and team are pretty good. Not much else.

Cons

Very abusive management team. Low pay and virtually no path or opportunity for advancement. And the low raises, below cost of living, meaning you are working for less and less each year. Yet demand on workload increases and requires many long hour days. Clear expectations are not given on projects along with unrealistic goals. When a realistic goal and deadline is proposed, it is shot down and the constant yelling at the team to beat the unrealistic deadline begins. Management by fear is the overall tactic. And my manager made it perfectly clear to me, in a one on one, it is what it is so get back to work. I thought it was me until I talked to other team members and he treats them the same way. Worst manger ever. Didn't take long to decide I wasn't going to succumb to this type of unprofessionalism the rest of my career. So I happily left for another opportunity with an organization that believes in its teams and their input.

Pros

Coworkers are great. Managers trust employees to do their work well. Managers make real effort to accommodate the needs of employees. Plenty of work to do and rotations keep monotony at bay. 7% annual performance bonus helps.

Cons

Very little room for advancement within the production side of the company. Promotions are few and far between. Raises are below inflation making long-term employment an unsavory option.

Pros

Decent base pay. 7% bonus (conditional on achieving shipment goals). Day shift supervisor is very good. Lateral movement within the company is relatively easy.

Cons

Raises are inflation or less. Terrible. Promotions are very slow. Upper management has very little understanding of day to day operations. Upper management is very stingy despite posting tens of millions in profit every year. Interview process is onerous. Apparent sexism. Understaffed. No accrual of vacation for 3 months in 2020 as well as forced to use all of my vacation hours. Inadequate training for new hires in several departments and shifts.
