Pros

Desperate for people Stable enough to sign your paycheck

Cons

Low wages Low raises Quick to cut bonuses and benefits Chronic understaffing A lot of false talking to "safety" and "quality," any improvement to safety or quality that impacts budget or schedule is not of interest Priority is stock price always No repercussions to genuine homophobic/racist behavior because they can't afford to lose the heads Gutted the middle levels and is now losing the upper levels leaving a massive knowledge gap looming

Pros

Easy going, nice benefits, free further education (masters/PhD). Great for an engineer starting out who needs to dip their feet in the pool of engineering for a few years and to get a great 401(k) match at the start of your career (compounding growth). Great for late stage career due to the benefits and solid enough pay in a low cost of living area

Cons

pay-scale lagging, no emphasis on learning new things, no punishment for people who are bad at their job. After working for 4 years, I feel like I should have jumped ship after 2. I haven't been given meaningful work that really challenges me in a while. Now I feel pigeonholed into staying because I have enough years of experience that I really should be considered senior, but I haven't been given work that reflects what I senior engineer should be capable of. Now I'm trying to jump ship before it's really too late. If I stay here another 2 years I think I will be genuinely unemployable and will have to stay at this company forever.
