Pros

Half the people in charge don't understand the work you are doing so it's very easy to throw some big words around and make it seem like you're busy. No one in upper management cares. I called out "sick" so many times I would have got fired anywhere else.

Cons

All of the cost savings plans put into place over the last few years have led to major problems in quality. Which then leads to everyone running around like chickens with their heads cut off trying to fix the problems and please customers. There is so much knowledge that has been accrued and never written down that new people coming in can't "pass" a test because they're doing it "wrong."

Pros

Nice to have 1 hour lunch breaks

Cons

-Engineers don't have enough time to do engineering because they are being controlled by production team. They will overlook quality until it costs them money and then blame the engineers only -about 1 engineer per department and will increase production but not capability -HR lies about the range of pay when being hired -You will get messaged and called before and after working hours and during weekends -no real training. They just hope you don't drown
