Pros

Hybrid work schedule, nice office coffee bar, good company reputation, big company, pension

Cons

1. IT hardware outdated, software and technology not as good as you may think 2. Office politics, new employee and young professional get singled out. You can't expect to be treated with respect, especially when dealing with senior employees who have tenure with the company. Favoritism and double standards are common. You just can't trust anyone, don't give out any personal information. Slurs cycle around pretty quickly. 3. Different teams and department go against each other, no cooperation or coordination, never ready for tasks. People do their job wrong and create a mass for others. But they don't care. Don't expect team members to look out for each other, they may stab your back! 4. New ideas and positive changes not welcomed. Many conversations are one-way. You just have to listen and agree (or keep your mouth shut) 5. There's diversity of course but seems no inclusion. 6. Lower than average 401k match, no higher education incentive, cannot accrual PTO, no overtime pay. 7. If you are the favored one, that's good! You'll like this place.

Pros

Great benefits: Day one health insurance, profit sharing, 401K and pension plan.

Cons

This location is a startup venture and has lots of details to work out to become more efficient and reliable. Advancement opportunities are very slow. Construction and infrastructure improvements are still in progress. There are a lot of PPE requirements due to the complexity and hazards on the job. The 12.25 work hours with shifting two weeks on day and two weeks on nights is very hard on the mind and body.
