Pros

Great benefits mainly 401k contribution. Fortunately I had a great manager I worked for that made a good working environment for my department.

Cons

Working anywhere else in the plant is a negative atmosphere and no employee appreciation. Metals are currently worth nothing. However it would take 12 years to lose enough money to make it worth the $500 million in closing our plant and that is only if metals stayed at the currently lowest price seen in decades. Gave in to buy product from competitors over seas. This was a poor decision made by the CEO whether it be short or long term.

Pros

Interesting work with (some) hard workers. Serious place to get real experience. Salaried employees receive a large 401k match.

Cons

Place is held together by critical staff working much harder than others, but don't expect many raises. Annual adjustments do not match inflation. Managers do not understand technical skills that set their staff apart and struggle to argue for raises when asked, losing this talent within a few years. Experience always outranks expertise (helps to be old). HR/Operations collaborate to underpay their hourly staff, keeping process changes that affect incentive pay out of union negotiations for as long as possible. HR can barely run Salaried payroll and will threaten you if you question their math (even when they owe you money). HR refuses to address racism/white supremacy within their hourly workforce.
